Does anyone have experience acquiring Government Contracting businesses?

I am looking to connect with anyone who has acquired government contracting businesses, specifically looking to understand how certifications transfer after acquisition i.e. WOSB, 8A, Hubzone, EDWSOB... I also want to learn more about the industry and operations post-acquisition.

Hi Chanel, I just joined searchfunder. I am based in the DC- area. I work with a lot of business owners and are apart of networking groups that specialize in the government contracting space. I’d be happy to connect and make some introductions. I sent you a LinkedIn request.

Hi ^Searchfunder member‌, I'd be glad to connect with you on this... I've spent 25 years working in the government contracting space; bought a small gov IT services business in 2011, grew it to 60x original value and sold it for 11x EBITDA multiple in 2021 to Mid-Market PE. ^Searchfunder member‌ and I recently launched Mission Support Partners (www.missionsupportpartners.com) to invest in others making small biz acquisitions this space. I'd be glad to discuss your questions on certs as well as industry and operations; I'm at: --@----.com
