Looking High Risk— All small businesses are perceived to be high risk
Government Contracting Academy
GCA is the leading training provider for aspiring entrepreneurs, small business owners, and GovCon corporate executives
You’ve probably felt it—agencies hesitate, primes overlook you, and banks are skeptical. No matter how capable your business is, you’re seen as a risk in government contracting. But is that perception reality?
Let’s break it down.
Yes, small businesses statistically face more challenges—cash flow struggles, compliance hurdles, and long procurement cycles. But being labeled ‘high risk’ isn’t inevitable. The key is shifting how your business is perceived.
How to Change the Narrative
? Get Certified & Stay Compliant – 8(a), HUBZone, SDVOSB, WOSB, ISO certifications = instant credibility.
? Master Financial Readiness – Show strong cash flow, leverage SBA loans, and plan for delayed payments.
? Build Your Brand & Visibility – GovCon is about trust—be active on LinkedIn, industry events, and content creation.
? Leverage Past Performance – Highlight case studies, CPARS ratings, and testimonials.
? Form Strategic Partnerships – Team with primes, form JVs, and enter mentor-protégé programs.
? Stay Ahead of Compliance & Risk – Keep up with FAR/DFARS and cybersecurity (CMMC).
The bottom line? You control how your business is seen. When you prove stability, expertise, and readiness, you go from ‘high risk’ to high potential.
