Government Contracting Series: Part 2– SWaM Certification

PLEASE NOTE: THIS IS A VIRTUAL WORKSHOP.  Registrants will receive an email a few days before the event with a link to join the online meeting.

The Commonwealth of Virginia’s state procurement officers, as well as many local government procurement officers, must follow a set-aside program that gives priority to purchasing goods and services from Small and Micro companies, to include both Women-owned and Minority-owned companies.  Companies must apply and be approved for SWaM and Micro certification to be considered for the set-aside contract awards.
