This webinar provides an overview of what happens after you’ve submitted a USDA Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) program proposal. This information will not only help you when preparing a proposal, it will also ensure you are ready for the crucial next steps if you are recommended for an award. Kris Bergman, Managing Partner at BBC Entrepreneurial Training & Consulting (BBCetc), will go into detail about how SBIR submissions are reviewed. She’ll also tell you what to expect when you receive a “Just-in-Time” request if recommended for award. Making it to the next step of the SBIR process is great news, but you need to be prepared so you are not caught scrambling to provide the host of requested information on short notice, such as proof of: • An established, compliant accounting system • A time and effort reporting system • Policies and procedures for financial management • And much more
