As seasoned professionals, our business services team has over 65 years of combined experience and we know that there are many important steps that lead to growing a successful business.

  • Business Development

    • Identify. Strategize. Execute. Deliver. We identify, strategize, execute and deliver our leading edge business solutions to your firm and turn opportunities to sales. We help you grow your business by identifying opportunities in your target markets through our methodical Foundation Assessment Services (FAS). Through engaging our FAS, our clients come away with a definitive strategy to expand into new markets and a defined path toward exposure to viable opportunities towards achieving measurable growth. With LEBS’ strategy formulation and execution, your firm will benefit considerably by realizing results in a shorter time frame.

 

  • Certification & Pre-Qualification Application Preparation
    • Certification from local, state, and federal agencies allows you to position your company to take advantage of the procurement opportunities in those industries offering set aside and sole source contracts, as well as contributing to the small business and DBE participation goals on projects. As your company becomes eligible to obtain certifications specific to your company’s enterprise, our Business Services Team will assist you in the completion and timely submission of the appropriate certification applications. Our team will also assist you in the submission of Pre-Qualification applications for both public agencies as well as prime contractors.

 

  • Proposal Preparation & Management
    • LEBS provides comprehensive writing and management of proposals. Our Proposal Management Services includes managing proposal teams, proposal development and writing, proposal production, and developing post-proposal presentations. We will assist you in preparing your bids, identifying win themes, and creating compelling narratives with dynamic designs that result in attractive, winning proposals.

 

  • Surety Bonding

    • We understand the challenges for small businesses to obtain bonding in order to compete for projects. To increase our clients’ probability of obtaining a bond, we work with surety bond agents that participate in the Small Business Administration (SBA’s) Surety Bonds Guarantee Program.

 

  • Access to Capital

    • Access to capital is a major barrier for small businesses. Recognizing that our clients need financial assistance in order to have and manage cash flow, we work with lenders that understand the needs of small businesses. Our sources of funding include lenders in the Small Business Administration (SBA’s) Community Advantage Approved Lenders program.
