SBA Arizona: Selling to the Federal Government

The federal government typically spends approximately $500 billion in contracts every year. 23% of those dollars are required to be awarded to small businesses. Join us for an overview of how to sell your goods and services to the government. Learn about SBA resources and certification programs to help your small business successfully identify and compete for federal contract opportunities.

Our guest speaker is Mary Peetz, Director of Business Operations and Small Business Specialist for the 56th Contracting Squadron at Luke Air Force Base. She is responsible for directing, planning, and organizing the procurement activities of the Contracting Office including the installations' small, disadvantaged, HUBZone, service disabled veteran and women-owned business programs.
