BUS 505 Assignment 1 – Firm Research
Imagine you are a small-business owner seeking a federal business opportunity that falls in one of the following categories: competitive 8a, woman-owned, HUBZone, service-disabled veteran-owned, or veteran-owned.
Write a two to four (2-4) page paper in which you:
Describe the small-business line of business (LOB).
Determine which federal government procurement opportunity is aligned with the LOB using the Federal Business Opportunities Website:https://www.fbo.gov
Provide the firms current strategies and then assess the strategic success using financial figures or soft indicators as the background.
Develop a SWOT analysis (use a table) for the business to determine the internal and external factors in servicing the federal government and then provide a gap analysis (using the weaknesses and threats) in satisfying the expected requirements.
