The City of Lake Forest will partner with the Small Business Administration and the Lake Forest Chamber of Commerce on an "Introduction to Government Contracting" seminar. The seminar will be held on Friday, October 4, from 8 a.m. to 11:30 am at Lake Forest City Hall. This seminar is designed specifically for entrepreneurs interested in obtaining contracts with City, County, State, and the Federal government. Presented as a half-day seminar, it will include an overview of government contracting requirements for various levels of government, the process of obtaining certification, ways to offer your services, and an overview of government contracts for which small businesses can apply. As part of the seminar, staff will discuss the City's contract and purchasing guidelines, how to access Requests for Proposals, and the overall process of submitting a bid to the City.
