0:00 Welcome!

1:11 Step 1: Identify top industries for small businesses

• In Advanced Search, use the Award Type, Location, Recipient Type filters. Then click ‘Submit Search.’


• Click on the Categories tab to see top agencies, recipients, and industries (using PSC or NAICS codes) for your search.


• Refine your search based on any top industries you found.


4:40 Step 2: Identify federal contracts with set-asides


• Refine your search using the Type of Set-Aside filter. Click ‘Submit Search.’

• In the Table tab, sort results to see the contracts ending soon, which may indicate an opportunity to recompete for these contracts.


6:30 Step 3: Identify potential subcontract opportunities


• Remove filters for set-asides and small businesses.

• Use the Award Amount filter to set a minimum of $750,000. Awards above this amount are required to have a subcontracting plan.

• Click ‘Submit Search.’ In the Table tab, sort results to see the most recent start dates. These newer contracts are more likely to have subcontract opportunities.
