Strategic Advantages
Why Partner with Us?
Partnering with APA as a Service-Disabled Veteran Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) offers numerous strategic advantages:
Simplified Set-Asides:
The Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 6.2 highlights that no justification is needed to set aside an acquisition for SDVOSBs.
Previously complex processes for justifying set-asides no longer apply to SDVOSB opportunities.
Following a 15-day Notice of Contract Action for Intent to Award synopsis, a sole-source award can be made to an SDVOSB if no other SDVOSB expresses interest and/or the ability to meet requirements.
Congressional Support:
In 1999, Congress expanded small-business opportunities for veterans through the Veterans Entrepreneurship and Small Business Development Act.
This Act established a 3% government-wide contracting goal specifically for contracting with SDVOSBs.
PTO Approach:
Our PTO Approach involves prioritizing people over technology. We deliver focused priority areas, aiding our client organizations in achieving expeditious best-case-results. Tangible expectations are set and aligned with managed change interventions that enhance our people-over-technology service adoption methodology.
Partnering with APA as an SDVOSB supports veterans while delivering unique capability application to client businesses, supporting people first and technology second. Along with this, what truly sets APA apart from our competitors are our values which ensure that YOU get everything and more out of your contract with us.
