Do you have what it takes to become US government contractor?

Whether or not you are self-certified or having some professional firm like us combined 40 years of Federal business experiences to assist with your 8A application; you might want to think about the followings;

1) Can I or my firm be qualified? Is my firm a small business?

2) What should I do after I get certified?

3) Each certification you have received did not guarantee you will get the government contract that has clarity stated in your welcome letter from any government agencies.

4) What is your business plan? Government wants to know if you know how to manage your business. Before your business plan is approved, you are not able to obtain any contract.

5) Do you know in certain business that contracting officers are no longer the main control of handing you over your contract? Those building relationship would not work here, period.

6) Do you have enough cash flow to run government projects once you obtain one?

7) Do you know 90% of government projects are green? Is your firm ready for green project?

A lot of things you might want to think before you act on. Without sweat, determination, hard work there is no free lunch in government work. I always advised my clients and look ahead and set a goal where they can reach not try to go overboard. 9 years you can grow big like others; but you could also remain the same like you were just before. Good luck to all of you is working on government works.

Does anyone like to exchange their government contracting experiences from other countries? Please feel free to contact me if you like to exchange information.

Best Regards,

Stephanie

Looking for energy professionals in 2010

While we are trying to use renewable energy for our energy alternative resources, we need to focus on waste to energy. By clarity identify waste through its best management with life cycle; we could produce more possibility for waste to energy management. Health care projects did not stop growing even 2007 our economic takes a down fall. There are over 100 hospitals are focusing on LEED building certification to provide the best care for their professional staffs and patients. These hospitals are our future role models to continue building our future health care in medical research history. It took almost 200 years for US to begin having the general publics have renewable energy knowledge that may have slow down many years of possible development. We need to embrace such opportunity before we run out the clear air to breathe and safe land to live in. If you are interested in joining our waste to energy professional discussion; please send in your request with health care project related background. I am looking forward to hear from you.
Best Regards,

Everyone should be inspired by Medical Research. Welcome Medical professionals to join us.
Join our coming free green clinic project for medical research; the green project private grant for 10M plus Federal grant for medical research. We are looking for health care project team.
Each 5th grader will study learning Human Growth & Development and he or she may join the class to Poe Health Center to observe our wonder body. Our future Free Green Clinic Project will give people the opportunity of joining medical research around the world to discover what we can do to look younger and live longer with pain free. We need medical professional and any types of professionals related to housing and environment but not limited to participate. This is not only included medical professional but also included diet and exercise from nutritionists to body trainer to give us health guideline enable to continue research effort. Our human body could affect our mind, heart and soul and these four parts inside us could affect our health. Health should be primary for each of us and we also need to focus on health in education at the same time for our green education. In addition, as for children; green education would be like a great investment for them and our mankind’s future. Somehow without food, shelter and health for children first, green education would not be able to save them from poverty or homeless or illness. When we talk about medicine; there are western and eastern types of treatments and there are medical treatment methods out there for us to discover. When the illness hits us whether is transmitting disease can spread or just cancer or tumor; the illness will cause our body, mind, heart, and soul all suffered the worst. Personally I do believe any medicine or medical procedure is useful as long as we could find a cure. Western diagnostic system, surgical procedure or eastern medicine; we should all put up our research together. From my own personal experiences; I was saved few times without western medical methods instead of eastern medicine. When I was a baby that my cough could not stop; Dr. with practiced western medicine told my mom to put me on Morphine to stop my cough. My mom refused and found me eastern medicine to cure me instead. When I was at 3rd grade, I had a car accident. The western Dr. suggested cutting off my leg. Again, my mom rejected the idea, she found me a Chinese medicine doctor to cure me using traditional Asian medical treatment that I was in bed for 2 months. Maybe almost 30-40 years ago in my homeland, those doctors did not get medical training in such advance as western countries. It was my mom’s great choice that saved me from those medical choices. A doctor’s decision could cause a person’s whole life. Image if I became handicapped; I may not have a chance to live a real normal life or even study oversea to later fulfill my dream. Medical research is very important to discover mankind. Living in a greener place and decrease stress and live a healthy pain free life should be the best thing for everyone. Let’s work together to inspire medical research to everyone. You can start by talking to one person at a time to help people understand medical research is great for them and either donation or become a volunteer and help with fundraiser; whatever they can do to help could save the people and the earth.

Should you wait for doing Federal business?

Some of people told me about that they want to wait for doing Federal Business. My answer to them is if you wait, you will be more competitive. As we all know how Federal business becomes so popular after private business is downsized. Some companies may have working with private projects few years ago, but they have less private work now. Federal business is like a new investment. If you wait for it, you may not have great ROI as you are investing now. Federal business is all about knowing the system and work with the system. That does take time. That is why we called Federal business is like treasure that you will need to know how to dig or where to dig. The time is now and not waits.

Support Free green clinic for medical research

If you believe living a greener place makes you healthier, it is time to stand up for green.Posted by Stephanie Wu on November 19, 2009 at 8:17pm
Photo resources from http://www.che.org/regional/images/suburban.jpgThere are estimated 120 green hospitals and 140 green hotels are on their way to get LEED certified cross the states. Currently there are over 75,000 LEED AP certified and now you can also get green certified for your company green product. You also can sell your green product directly to Federal government (seeing detail www.ogmanagementllc.com) Green is going to focus on waste to energy according to Obama new recovery plan and there are many new green technologies for us to discover. What types of green jobs are out there ready to hire? Hiring a LEED AP for some company just developing a green project might be necessary to make some adjustment. A LEED AP needed to have at least intensive projects taken on for certification either in a team or work solely should be able to lead a new team. Hiring a LEED AP or choosing a LEED consultant service would be different depending on a company’s payroll budget. Some construction companies are already tried to adapt the green project by hiring a LEED AP on their own. Some LEED AP might also be an architect that could bring design & build with LEED certification. Most projects are relied on team work or some of them may rely on networking or work relation. You can also work on Federal green projects (check our company website for newsletter update 60 pages for green project lists) LEEP AP itself should also carry great responsibility for helping their clients to care for environmental issues and eco system rather than just RIO for energy profit. LEED AP itself should be a great educator to teach people around them about going green is everyone’s duty not just a job. It is our future that we are depending on. That is going green to its final goal---save the earth. I am looking for a team willing to work on building a green health care with assisting any medical research (you will do medical research and work with medical professionals) and expand from my international green project. Welcome people, who are interested in, please send in your resume to cnmgconusltant@yahoo.com (included LEED project related to health care and hospitality) and I will contact you (this is not a job position).Look for any LEED project (health care or educational) to join our long term building project research “health building makes people healthier and less aging and live longer”Detail please read CMM green newsletter.Posted by Stephanie Wu (CMM consultant)
Note: An inspirational speech from a network friend• Group: Florida CRE• Subject: New comment (1) on "Future Green projects for health care and Hospitality"You place an awful lot of responsibility on the LEED AP, which is likely what the USGBC had in mind, but just never figured out how to accomplish.
You, Stephanie, are a poster child for LEED AP. You are exactly what the USGBC hoped for when they developed and then changed the AP designation. You embody Green. I am a LEED AP, and yet, if I were doing a Green project, I'd prefer to have you leading my team. Unfortunately, for most, LEED AP was just another credential. Hopefully people will see past the initials and look to credentialed people such as yourself. I wish I had the talent to join your team. Best of luck.Posted by Bob Schecter
