Government Procurement

Many small businesses are interested in selling their products and services to federal, state, and local government agencies. The U.S. government is the largest purchaser of goods and services in the world. State and local government agencies also purchase significant amounts of products and services. Many government agencies have goals or programs designed to encourage or promote more business with small firms.

Kentucky businesses interested in marketing their products and/or services to government agencies can receive free assistance from the Kentucky Procurement Assistance Program (KPAP). Our Guide to Government Contracting provides information on how to do business with the government.

KPAP services include:

  • Marketing - helping your company identify contracting opportunities with federal, state, and local government agencies

  • Consulting - one-on-one assistance on topics such as bid package/proposal preparation, vendor registration, government marketing, etc.

  • Training - click here to access a calendar of KPAP training events

  • Electronic Commerce/E-Procurement - information on how EC/E-Procurement can impact your government marketing efforts

  • Military and Federal Specifications and Standards - access to specifications and standards required in some federal contracts

  • Price History - identifying the past price paid and the successful contractor for items bought repetitively by the federal government

  • Subcontracting - matching prime contractors with potential subcontractors
