Golden Business Opportunities with the Golden State

Now is the perfect time to establish a new relationship with the government or expand an existing one.

According to the Department of Finance, California’s General Fund boasts a staggering $75 billion budget surplus. Under the Federal Recovery Act, California will receive an additional $26 billion for state and local governments. That is $100 billion in government funds all being targeted to spend and stimulate the economy in California.

Despite the ongoing pandemic, public funds are flush at a historic level, and there is a great need for products such as personal protective equipment, computers, printers, general office equipment, and other items and equipment needed to make government function.

Tom Sheehy, Principal and Founder of Sheehy Strategy Group, notes that now is the perfect time for businesses of all sizes to establish a new relationship with state and local governments or expand an existing one.

Doing business with the public sector can be an arduous process with complicated procurement rules agencies must follow. There are different types of contract vehicles, some more situationally appropriate than others.

For the Sheehy Strategy Group, navigating the complex state and local government procurement process and requirements is second nature. Their procurement team combines Tom Sheehy’s extensive executive branch experience running the Department of Finance and Government Operations Agency along with Eric Mandell’s many years of service as the State of California’s Chief of Acquisitions at DGS.

Sheehy and his team can help determine the best contract vehicles for a business and can also help small businesses become certified by the State of California, something that could lead to preferential treatment during the bidding process.

Opportunities are ripe for the picking, and now is the time to act. The Sheehy Strategy group can provide both the technical expertise and political muscle in Sacramento to help your business be successful.
