Workshop to provide training for new Bid Targeting System
from the Michigan Defense Center
Training session focused on small and mid-size companies
looking to bid on government contracts
Nearly 4,000 Michigan businesses are currently serving the defense industry, but according to the Michigan Defense Center, there is room for more. To open up access, the center recently launched the Bid Targeting System (BTS), a web-based tool application designed by a former Department of Defense contracting officer that supports companies with government contracting experience and companies which have not done business with the government in the past. Through business intelligence and predictive analytics, the BTS helps organizations quickly identify and prioritize federal contract opportunities and save time and money in the pursuit of that work.

Companies interested in learning how to use the BTS can attend a free workshop offered by Macomb County Planning and Economic Development. The session will be held on Tuesday, September 25 from 8 a.m. to 10 a.m. at Velocity (18 Mile Rd, Sterling Heights, MI 48314). Parties can register for the event here. Limited seating is available, so it is recommended that interested individuals sign up by September 21.
