Benefits of the Woman-Owned Small Business Certification
Becoming a certified Woman-Owned Small Business (WOSB) can greatly increase the growth of your business. The federal government sets aside 5% of federal contracting dollars each year to WOSB Certified businesses and there are even specific contracts that only WOSB Certified businesses can obtain and bid on.
The key benefits of the WOSB/EDWOSB Certification include:
- Access to federal contracts set aside specifically for WOSBs
- 5% of federal contracting dollars are allocated to WOSB Certified small businesses.
- Increased subcontracting opportunities
- WOSB Certified businesses also gain direct contracting access with prime contractors and are listed in exclusive government databases, enhancing their visibility for no-bid and direct-award contracts.
- WOSB set-aside contracts have higher profit margins compared to other contracts

A requirement to obtaining any Federal Small Business Certification is having an active and compliant SAM Registration. Having a SAM Registration ensures that you are a business that is able to do business with the federal government and can get paid for the work you do.
