Veterans
Veteran-owned businesses have significant advantages in federal contracting. The government sets aside 3% of all federal contracts for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSB) and provides additional opportunities through VOSB set-asides. If you served, the government wants your business to succeed.
Women-Owned Businesses
The federal government has a 5% contracting goal for Women-Owned Small Businesses (WOSB). Through the WOSB and Economically Disadvantaged WOSB (EDWOSB) programs, women entrepreneurs can access set-aside and sole source contracts across hundreds of NAICS codes.
Minority-Owned Businesses
The SBA 8(a) Business Development Program helps socially and economically disadvantaged business owners compete for federal contracts. With sole source contracts up to $4.5M, the 8(a) program is one of the most powerful tools for minority entrepreneurs entering government contracting.
First-Time Contractors
Getting your first government contract can feel overwhelming, but thousands of small businesses successfully enter the federal market every year. The government actively seeks new vendors and has programs specifically designed to help newcomers succeed.
Native American-Owned Businesses
Native American-owned businesses benefit from some of the strongest preferences in federal contracting. Through the Indian Incentive Program, Buy Indian Act, and 8(a) program, tribal and Native American-owned firms have unique pathways to federal contracts.
HUBZone Businesses
The HUBZone program helps businesses in Historically Underutilized Business Zones gain access to federal contracts. With a 3% government-wide contracting goal and sole source authority, HUBZone certification opens doors for businesses in economically distressed areas.
