Today’s podcast guest Patrick Heffler, President of Heffler Contracting Group. Patrick is a San Diego native and he shares his incredible journey as a construction contractor who benefited greatly from the power of federal procurement. When he entered the 8a BD program in 2012 his revenues were roughly $320,000 and he had 1 employee. As of December 2019, he hit $32,000,000 in sales and now has more than 96 full-time employees. He is extremely grateful for the opportunities, training, and partnership SBA has provided throughout the years and for that reason wanted to give back and share his story here with us.
In today’s podcast, we discuss how he learned the secret of maximizing the 8a BD program and how you can do the same. He did not just jump in with 2 feet blind, he actually did a small research study to find out what works and what doesn’t. The lessons you learn from today’s episode if utilized will be invaluable for any current or future 8a contractor looking to maximize his or her potential in the program. Patrick is a loving husband and father of 4 children, 3 boys, and 1 girl I want to welcome to the stage our next Giant.
