The Missouri APEX Accelerator (formerly Missouri Procurement Technical Assistance Centers (MO PTAC)) assists businesses — including small, disadvantaged and women-owned firms — in obtaining federal, state and local government contracts. Our procurement specialists have years of experience. They will help you in identifying opportunities and understanding the contracting process so you can take advantage of government sales dollars. PTAC counselors will assist with SAM registration, which is free. Learn how to sell your products or services to the government.
