Federal Small Business Certification: Maximizing the Benefits
Once you have an active and compliant SAM Registration as well as a your Federal Small Business Certification, you can start exploring more options when it comes to Federal Contracting. This includes programs like SBA’s Set-Asides or the GSA Schedule.
The SBA has four primary Set-Aside Programs; Woman-Owned Small Business, Veteran-Owned Small Business, 8(a) Minority Owned Business Development Program, and the HUBZone Program. What’s unique about these certifications is that each of them come with specific benefits. There are specific Federal Contracts that must be awarded to specific Set-Aside Certifications holders which will greatly increase the chances of being contacted and awarded by prime contractors.
USBRI has been in operation since 2011 assisting companies of all business types with SAM and Federal Certifications. Reach out to the USBRI Help Desk at 1-888-646-9998 to learn more and speak to CRS directly about next steps.
