How IT vendors can get a piece of the $1.2T infrastructure bill

By Kevin P. Young, Senior Market Intelligence Analyst

When the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act was signed into law late last year by President Biden, many of us in the GovCon community started to think about how this five-year, $1.2 trillion might lead to additional business for us.

Here is some basic information that should provide enough background to get you started in evaluating whether or not your company should pursue business in this area. Small businesses might especially want to take note.

Isn’t this money for roads and bridges? What about:

• Transit and rail?
• Airports, seaports and waterways?
• Electric vehicles?
• Power and water systems and supplies?
• Broadband?
• Environmental remediation?
• Plus – hazardous waste, hospitals and lighthouses?
• And parks, pipeline transport and public housing?

YES, they all are — but your company could have an important role to play.
