Vermont Business Magazine The Vermont Procurement Technical Assistance Center (VT PTAC) is hosting a series of workshops throughout the State of Vermont on the recently released VTrans Job Order Contracts (JOCs). The JOCs will replace the Category I Maintenance and Rental Agreements (CAT I MRAs) currently in use. Experienced procurement counselors will assist Vermont contractors with understanding the new JOCs Response process in this two-hour workshop.
“This workshop is a valuable tool for existing VTrans CAT I contractors or any contractor looking for guidance on submitting a compliant bid proposal for this procurement opportunity,” said Bonnie Sanders, VT PTAC Procurement Specialist.

About the Vermont Procurement Technical Assistance Center: VT PTAC provides Vermont businesses with an understanding of the requirements of government contracting to obtain and successfully perform federal, state, and local contracts through free counseling services, training, and networking opportunities. The center’s mission is to increase the percentage of federal contracts awarded to Vermont businesses with emphasis on contracts awarded to small businesses. VT PTAC is funded through a cooperative agreement with the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) and the VT Department of Economic Development (DED). U.S. Sens. Patrick Leahy and Bernie Sanders, along with U.S. Rep. Peter Welch, have supported the PTAC program nationally, which brings Vermont more than $400,000 annually and matches a state investment.
VT PTAC is part of the Vermont Agency of Commerce and Community Development (ACCD). ACCD’s mission is to help Vermonters improve their quality of life and build strong communities. ACCD accomplishes this mission by providing grants, technical assistance, and advocacy through three divisions: The Department of Economic Development, the Department of Tourism and Marketing, and the Department of Housing and Community Development.
