What is Federal Contracting?
Federal contracting is the process by which the U.S. government procures goods and services from private businesses to fulfill its needs. These contracts can range from providing essential items like office supplies and medical equipment to delivering complex services such as construction, IT solutions, and defense systems. Essentially, when the government needs something it can’t produce in-house, it turns to businesses through federal contracts to get the job done.
For businesses, federal contracting offers a chance to work with one of the world’s largest buyers. The government’s annual spending creates opportunities for companies of all sizes, particularly those eligible for small business set-asides like HUBZone, WOSB, VOSB, and 8(a) programs. These contracts are not only about profit—they’re also about contributing to public services, national security, and infrastructure that directly benefit American citizens.
