Frequently Asked Questions
What is a small business set-aside?
A total small business set-aside reserves a contract exclusively for small businesses, as defined by the SBA's size standards for the relevant NAICS code. Agencies must set aside contracts between $10,000 and $250,000 exclusively for small business, and should set aside larger contracts when two or more small businesses are likely to compete at fair market prices.
How do I qualify as a small business for federal contracts?
Qualification is determined by the SBA's size standards, which vary by NAICS code — typically measured by annual revenue (e.g., ≤ $19.5M for most service industries) or employee count (e.g., ≤ 500 employees for manufacturing). Register in SAM.gov and self-certify your small business status. The SBA's Size Standards Tool at sba.gov can verify your eligibility.
How do I find federal contracting opportunities?
Federal contracting opportunities are posted on SAM.gov (System for Award Management). You can search by keyword, NAICS code, set-aside type, agency, and response deadline. FedOps aggregates and enriches SAM.gov data daily so you can filter and track opportunities in one place.
What is a NAICS code?
A NAICS (North American Industry Classification System) code is a 2–6 digit number that classifies businesses by industry. Federal agencies assign a primary NAICS code to each solicitation to indicate the type of work being procured. Businesses register their NAICS codes in SAM.gov to indicate which industries they operate in.
