What is Government Contractor Receivables?
Government Contractor Receivables financing allows businesses working on government contracts to receive immediate cash by advancing the value of their unpaid invoices.

How Government Invoice Factoring Helps Businesses Resolve Their Cash Flow Issues?
1st Commercial Credit provides government receivable financing for businesses across the nation.
Government agencies (state, federal, and local) can provide your company with a big push in work and revenue but they can also place you in a challenging cash flow situation. Now, as you know, your company still need to pay workers and contractors to work for the government job at potentially prevailing wages. You will also need to pay for overhead costs and materials. Unfortunately, your business won’t receive any payment for those efforts until months after the work has been completed.
Securing a government contract can significantly boost your business, as state, federal, and local agencies often outsource a large volume of work to private companies. Whether you provide services or manufacture products, landing a government contract typically means steady work and recurring revenue.
However, working with government contracts presents a major challenge: delayed payments. Government clients are often slow to pay invoices and do not offer any upfront payments. It can take anywhere from 30 to 90 days, or even longer, to receive payment.
Additionally, government agencies are demanding clients. They choose suppliers that can best meet their requirements and can replace your services at any time.
For businesses facing these challenges, 1st Commercial Credit offers several financing options. One effective solution is government contract factoring, which provides you with fast cash upfront to pay your employees and vendors while waiting for payment from the government.

How Does Government Contractor Factoring Work With 1st Commercial Credit?
Factoring government contracts is a funding solution that resolves a businesses’ cash flow issues. In this alternative financing solution, a business will agree with a company that factors receivables and provides funding for unpaid invoices.
The factoring company advances an agreed percentage of the unpaid invoice balance. The business gets that cash immediately and can use it for whatever they wish. The factoring service company will then collect the payment directly from the clients and keep the amount it advanced plus a small processing fee. The remainder of the payment is sent to the business once the invoice is paid in full.
One of the significant advantages of using your government receivables as collateral for a receivable loan is that the application, approval, and funding process take only a few days. Another advantage is that factoring companies usually will not focus on your credit history. Instead, they are more interested in whether your customer will pay on time. That means that factoring can still be a viable option for you if your business has low credit or bad credit.
1st Commercial Credit has extensive experience making cash advances on contracts with local, state, and federal government agencies. We understand the payable procedures and how to work with government clients to collect payment.
