  • What you have before you is a Weapon System
    designed to fight lack of knowledge and
    misunderstanding about Small Business Programs.
    We hope to pass this body of information from
    this dedicated team, the Matchmakers HPT, to the
    fighters for supplier diversity all over this
    nation. While this training does not replace the
    actual regulations, the Mark I course can light
    the path to the wisdom needed to get the Small
    Business participation mission accomplished.
  • This is the users guide to the system. Please
    use it wisely and often. Its application is what
    the American Dream is all about. Small Business
    owners, their families, the President and the
    Congress of these United States are all counting
    on you to get the job done.
  • We wish you great success!
