[Webstore-china] Understanding the 2011 Federal budget and what it means for small businesses

Understanding the 2011 Federal budget and what it means for small
businesses
Ther;s a guy I work with- Ray Bjorklund. Really smart guy. H-s the guy
who takes thousands of lines of federal budget information, digests it
and dissects it, and comes up with a complete rundown' industry by
industry and sector by sector' of how much money the government has
available to spend on federal contracts.
Ra's also a glass-half-empty kind of guy. So, when he found that
the'contractor addressabl' market' money available to pay contractors
for existing and new work' for fiscal year 2011 is about $36 billion
less than it was in FY 2010, he had words of warning for contractors.
'm a glass-half-full kind of guy. When I heard that the
contractor-addressable market for fiscal year 2011 is about $36
billion less than it was in FY 2010, my first thought was: Hey, it's
still a $720 billion market, so how can we help?
More than ever, people selling into the government need guidance in
order to locate the best opportunities. That's my goal today - to help
you, the small-business owner, find your best opportunities in
government based on the details of the FY2011 federal budget.
A Flat Budget, with Opportunities
The U.S. federal government has mapped out a $3 trillion budget for
GFY2011. Of the $3 trillion GFY2011 budget, $720 billion is contractor
addressable. That figure is down five percent from last year, and is
expected to remain relatively flat through 2014.
Despite this decrease, there are three areas that are seeing growth
and represent opportunity for the contractor community:
* Oversight of the Financial Industry. While most of this
opportunity will be within the Department of the Treasury, there are
new agencies being formed to help oversee the financial industry.
There is real money here - worth contractor consideration. In fact,
small niche players in organizational development or the financial
management domain might be well-positioned to help launch new
sub-agencies.
* Support for Troops. There are three areas here that will provide
the most opportunity for contractors: 1) taking care of active duty
military; 2) taking care of veterans, and 3) improving war materiel
through reset and replenishment.
* Infrastructure Security. This area encompasses information
security as well as physical security - from protecting the government
cyberspace to improving the levee system in Louisiana.
