You've worked hard on an offer only to be eliminated early in the process. The Contracting Officer offers you a preward debriefing, but should you take it? We talk about the advantages and disadvantages, what info you can expect, and what to do with that info to make your next offer better.

Contract payments can sometimes take awhile to receive. However the Government has a method to pay you faster, when you both agree to use it. We talk about the benefits to small businesses when accepting the Government Purchase Card (or "p-card") to accelerate your payments, things you need to consider when accepting it, and why it could be the future in Government contract payments.
