Frequently asked questions

Register your business in SAM.gov, then respond to a solicitation by the deadline in the notice. Many notices are set aside for small businesses, veteran-owned, women-owned, HUBZone or 8(a) firms.
What is a sources sought notice?
It is market research. The agency asks businesses to describe their ability to do the work before it decides how to buy. It is not a request for bids.
