Small Business Utilization Center
NCR's Small Business Utilization Center (SBUC) mission is to promote increased access to GSA’s national procurement opportunities. The SBUC serves as the regional liaison and first point of contact for business located throughout Washington, DC; Maryland (Montgomery and Prince George's counties); and Virginia (the cities of Alexandria and Falls Church, and Arlington, Fairfax, Loudoun, and Prince William counties).
As the regional advocate for small businesses, the SBUC’s goal is to provide information about various government contracts and procurement opportunities. The center is especially interested in locating and assisting these entities (links to Small Business Association Pages):small, small disadvantaged and Section 8(a), woman-owned small, HUBZone small, veteran-owned small and service-disabled veteran owned small businesses
The center’s small business assistance team is proactive in ensuring that small businesses have the maximum practicable opportunity to compete for and receive government contracts. To ensure inclusion of regional small businesses, the SBUC: conducts networking sessions, roundtables, hosts monthly schedule training workshops, and one-on-one counseling. The SBUC provides support and assistance in planning, implementing and coordinating programs to help the Region meet its socio-economic contracting goals.
