Introduction
SMBs are the backbone of the global economy, yet they often face systemic barriers to accessing large-scale contracts. Governments and corporations are increasingly seeking ways to support SMBs while achieving their strategic objectives. However, the challenges are manifold:

Inadequate knowledge of compliance requirements.
Lack of resources to scale operations effectively.
