## General Information

The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) provides free training opportunities to small businesses through Training, Knowledge, and Opportunities (TKO) Seminars and Webinars.

The TKO seminar is a course that teaches vendors how to start doing business with DLA. Vendors learn how to find open solicitations, how to submit a quote through the DLA Internet Bid Board System (DIBBS), the procedures for viewing/downloading drawings, and how to use Invoicing, Receipt, Acceptance and Property Transfer (iRAPT) to get paid. There are also many other relevant topics of discussion. All sessions are free and held virtually.

Training is provided by DLA Land and Maritime in Columbus, Ohio, but benefits all DLA suppliers.

Register for the training on the Small Business Office Outreach Calendar.
