Select GCR helps people who are defined as socially disadvantaged by the US government to acquire certification and ultimately the procurement of Government contracts. Socially disadvantaged people are categorized as people who have been subjected to prejudices and biases based on their racial, ethnic, and cultural characteristics. The prejudices must be from American society and based on being a member of a group and not their own individual characteristics. Being disadvantaged must also come from circumstances out of their control.

🏆More Money for Disadvantaged Businesses – There’s never been a better time to become registered!

Previously, 5% of prime contracts had to be awarded to 8(a) certified businesses. This percentage has since increased to 11% of all Federal contracting dollars spent and is in line to be 15% next year.

Despite this exciting opportunity, less than 1% of disadvantaged businesses are certified and benefiting from these set-aside contracts. It's because business owners are busy, and going through a 100-300 page application is not the best use of your time. If you’re not familiar with the process, it can be challenging. Many applications are denied each year due to minor errors, omissions, or insufficient supporting evidence.

The longer the process takes, the more costly it can become. Do you have countless hours to spare? We didn’t think so!

“I never take the time to leave reviews but in this case I’m happy to give Select GCR a positive review that they absolutely deserve. I’ve worked with so many different departments inside Select GCR over the years and I’ve always had a positive experience. I’ve worked with Jay, Jeff, Lyndsay, Justin, Kristin, and others. I’ve always received the help and guidance that I needed. This company helped me every step of the way. It began with the very extensive 8a application process. They helped me with my SAM, gave me guidance with my website, and helped me with marketing as well. I have also been very happy with the Select GCR software as it has been very helpful in going after contracts. They are a great team and always there to help.”
