I won a gov bid but needs funds to deliver the product?

I own a small business and recently got a government bid. I need $45K to purchase the equipment from the MFG and will get $66K in the end. I wrote "payment in advance" on the bid but the county said they pay 30 days after install. It takes 35 days sea freight to get my product, 1 week for the install and 30-45 days to get paid. I offered a friend $6K to fund the deal for me but he could not qualify for a line of credit or short term loan. I can't take out a loan because I have an SBA loan that prohibits any other loans and I have no more room on that loan to get more. I tried a funding place in Florida but they want $12K. Do I have any options for $5-6K to get funded? I have the county's contract and bid acceptance paperwork. bond amount = no A friend of mine told me to check out www.liquidcapitalcorp.com/custage so I may have a solution.
