Looking for DBE, MBE, WBE and Veteran Owned Contractors for Tollway Procurement Opportunities

I am currently looking to work with a select group of committed contractors interested in growing their capacity. The most important ingredient for success will be their desire and ability to take action when opportunities present themselves. I would like to know more about any firm and that you believe we can assist.

The "Move Illinois: The Illinois Tollway Driving the Future" program is a 15-year, $12 billion capital program, with Small Business Set Aside (SBSA) projects from $50,000 up to $1,000,000 and unbundled projects up to $5,000,000. Once accepted into this unique program, my job will be to help those firm qualify to make competitive bids on these projects. The assistance is FREE and includes:

· Finance & accounting

· Insurance

· Bonding

· Estimating & bidding

· Doing business with the Illinois Tollway

· How to be successful as a subcontractor

· Tools for technology

· Project management

· Safety & field operations

· Business and marketing plan development

I have attached the Construction Business Development assessment form to this email. Please feel free to share this information. Ask your contractors to complete and return the attached assessment to me as soon as possible. I would like to have my group ready to grow by January 15, 2015. Thank you

Enjoy your BEST day ever!
