Certification & Readiness Strategy
GCA supports public agencies and prime contractors in identifying, engaging, and partnering with qualified Small Business Enterprises (SBE), Disadvantaged Business Enterprises (DBE), and Veteran-Owned Business Enterprises (VBE) through strategic certification readiness and outreach. Our approach helps organizations meet participation requirements, strengthen community impact, and build high-performing project teams across construction and transportation sectors.
For small businesses and veteran-owned suppliers seeking DBE, SBE, or VBE certification, GCA provides end-to-end support throughout the certification process. From application preparation to approval ensures submissions are accurate, efficient, and compliant with agency standards. Beyond certification, we increase visibility of your firm’s qualifications, connecting your certified expertise to relevant bid opportunities where your capabilities align with project needs.
Compliance & Risk Management
GCA helps public agencies, prime contractors, and small regional business enterprises manage compliance requirements across DBE, SBE, and Veteran participation programs with clarity and confidence. We ensure subcontractors are properly certified, documented, and positioned to meet eligibility and performance requirements throughout the life of a project.
Our team collaborates closely with primes and subcontractors to support compliance through proactive instruction, readiness assessments, ongoing monitoring, and detailed reporting. By identifying risks early and aligning processes with project and regulatory requirements, we help organizations reduce exposure, maintain audit readiness, and keep complex construction and transportation projects moving forward without disruption. GCA’s compliance approach protects projects, strengthens partnerships, and ensures requirements are met without slowing delivery.
Strategic Outreach & Engagement
GCA designs strategic marketing and outreach programs that connect public agencies, prime contractors, and small regional business enterprises through intentional, data-informed engagement. Drawing on well-established local and statewide business networks, we facilitate targeted networking, training, and matchmaking opportunities that support meaningful collaboration and project readiness.
Our engagement strategies go beyond event coordination. We provide market research, participation analysis, and practical insights that help organizations understand when and how certified and qualified small businesses can be effectively integrated into bid and project opportunities. The result is stronger partnerships, better-aligned teams, and outreach efforts that translate into real participation and project performance.
Our outreach efforts are designed to build relationships that perform—before, during, and beyond the bid.
Bid-Ready Training & Capacity: Building Workshops
GCA delivers hands-on training and workshops designed to prepare small regional business enterprises to compete and perform on construction and transportation projects. Our workshops focus on estimating, pre-qualification, bonding readiness, and certification alignment—the core capabilities required to pursue public-sector and infrastructure opportunities.
Offered online, one-on-one, or in small group settings, our training is tailored to each business’s goals and stage of readiness. We guide firms through complex application and qualification processes, help clarify service offerings and documentation requirements, and ensure businesses are positioned to meet certification and project standards. Beyond readiness, we support visibility and connection to prime contractors—helping firms move from preparation to participation and sustainable growth.
Our workshops turn preparation into performance—helping businesses compete with confidence and deliver with credibility.
