    Federal Government Tilts the Field for Small Business
    Moderator: Tom Temin, Principal, Thomas Temin Associates

    Federal discretionary budgets may be flat, but the outlook is relatively strong for small-business federal contractors.

    New rules recently finalized increase competition for small purchases from GSA schedule contract.
    Six bills to help small business are pending in Congress, including one that would raise the government's obligation to small and disadvantages business from 23% of contracting dollars to 25% which represents an additional $9 billion per year.

    A pending rewrite of the Federal Information Security Management Act (FISMA) means potentially billions in products and services from continuous monitoring requirements built into the legislation.
    Emphasis on fixed price awards for services and slimmer margin for contingency fees favor small, lower overhead businesses for prime contracts and for subs.

    Two veteran small business executives will discuss strategies for maintaining, if not growing, federal contract revenues in one of the toughest fiscal environments in a generation.
