Electronic Government and Technology Business Gateway / E-Forms Initiative

GSA has partnered with the Small Business Administration (SBA) in the Business Gateway initiative, one of the 25 E-Government initiatives established under the President's Management Agenda. The Business Gateway program is compromised of two separate but complimentary initiatives: 

  • Business Gateway. The Business Gateway, developed and managed by the SBA, is a business portal that will be the single access point for government services and information needed to start, run, and grow a business. The Business Gateway will provide businesses with the tools to find information, comply with government laws and regulations, and receive assistance and advice much more rapidly that today. 
  • Electronic Forms (E-Forms) Catalog. The E-Forms Catalog, developed and maintained by the GSA, will enhance the ability and reduce the burden of the nation's 22.4 million small businesses to access, complete, and submit more than 4500 regulatory forms. It is also the goal of the E-Forms initiative to provide citizens and visitors with a one-stop means to locate and access federal government forms. 

Together, the Business Gateway and the E-Forms Catalog initiatives will provide businesses and citizens with a cost-effective, customer-centered means to access business-related federal government information, services and forms, and reduce the regulatory paperwork burden on business owners and citizens.
