Browse by category

Every category below is a live, continuously updated list pulled directly from SAM.gov — filtered to federal IT NAICS codes (541511, 541512, 541519) and organized by set-aside program, service type, notice stage, agency, or location.

By set-aside program

WOSB IT Contracts

2 open

This page tracks federal information-technology solicitations set aside under the SBA's Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB) and Economically Disadvantaged WOSB (EDWOSB) programs. Listings are pulled directly from SAM.gov and limited to opportunities coded with a WOSB or EDWOSB set-aside, so every contract shown here is one your certified WOSB or EDWOSB firm is specifically eligible to compete for.

SDVOSB IT Contracts

5 open

These are federal IT opportunities coded with an SDVOSB set-aside under FAR 19.14 — reserved for small businesses owned and controlled by service-disabled veterans. This list excludes general veteran-owned (non-disabled) set-asides and other small-business programs so you're only looking at solicitations that match your SDVOSB eligibility.

8(a) IT Contracts

1 open

This page lists federal IT solicitations coded under the SBA's 8(a) Business Development program (FAR 19.8), covering both competitive 8(a) set-asides and 8(a) sole-source awards. If your firm holds 8(a) certification, these are the IT opportunities specifically reserved for the program.

HUBZone IT Contracts

0 open

These federal IT opportunities are coded with a HUBZone set-aside under FAR 19.13, reserved for small businesses certified in Historically Underutilized Business Zones. Both standard HUBZone set-asides and HUBZone sole-source notices appear here.

Small Business IT Contracts

7 open

This page covers federal IT solicitations set aside under FAR 19.5's Total or Partial Small Business rules — open to any qualifying small business rather than a specific socioeconomic program like 8(a), HUBZone, WOSB, or SDVOSB. If you're a general small business without one of those certifications, this is the broadest relevant category.

No Set-Aside IT Contracts

18 open

Not every federal IT buy is reserved for a small-business program. The notices below are marked as having no set-aside on SAM.gov, meaning they are not restricted to 8(a), HUBZone, WOSB, SDVOSB or total small business competition. You do not need a socioeconomic certification to compete, though larger firms can compete too, and these notices can also be useful leads for subcontracting or teaming. Notices that state no set-aside information at all are not included, because we cannot tell what they are.

By service type

Software Development Contracts

15 open

Every listing here is classified under NAICS 541511 (Custom Computer Programming Services), the code the federal government uses for custom software development, application programming, and related coding work. This is the primary NAICS code most software development small businesses register under in SAM.gov.

IT Consulting Contracts

22 open

This page tracks opportunities classified under NAICS 541512 (Computer Systems Design Services), which covers IT consulting, systems integration, network design, and computer systems planning work for federal agencies.

IT Equipment & Services Contracts

28 open

Listings here fall under NAICS 541519 (Other Computer Related Services), the federal catch-all code covering IT equipment procurement, computer facilities management, disaster recovery, and other computer services that don't fit neatly under custom programming or systems design.

Cybersecurity Contracts

1 open

This page surfaces federal IT opportunities whose titles indicate cybersecurity-related work — such as information security, security operations, penetration testing, or risk management framework support. Matching is keyword-based against the official solicitation title, so it's a helpful starting filter, not an exhaustive or certified list — always confirm scope against the full solicitation.

Web Development Contracts

0 open

This page surfaces federal IT opportunities whose titles indicate web development, website, or web application work. Matching is keyword-based against the official solicitation title, so treat it as a helpful starting filter and confirm exact scope in the full solicitation before bidding.

Software License & Renewal Contracts

13 open

Agencies regularly buy software licenses, subscriptions and annual renewals as commercial purchases, often through short RFQs or sources sought notices. This page lists active notices whose titles indicate a software license, subscription, SaaS or renewal requirement. Matching is keyword-based on the official notice title, so confirm exactly what the agency is buying in the notice itself.

By notice stage

By agency

VA IT Contracts

14 open

This page lists IT opportunities issued by the Department of Veterans Affairs across our tracked small-business NAICS codes (541511, 541512, 541519). It's organized by issuing agency rather than set-aside type, so it includes VA IT work across all set-aside types alongside full-and-open notices.

DoD & DHS IT Contracts

35 open

This page lists IT opportunities issued by the Department of Defense (including its service branches and defense agencies) and the Department of Homeland Security, across our tracked small-business NAICS codes. It's organized by issuing agency, so it spans all set-aside types alongside full-and-open notices.

Air Force IT Contracts

7 open

This page lists active Department of the Air Force notices under NAICS 541511, 541512 and 541519, across its commands and contracting offices. It is organized by issuing department, so it includes every notice type and set-aside, and it overlaps with our DoD & DHS page by design: this one narrows to a single military department.

Navy & Marine Corps IT Contracts

10 open

This page lists active Department of the Navy notices, which include Navy commands and the Marine Corps, under NAICS 541511, 541512 and 541519. It is organized by issuing department, so it spans every notice type and set-aside, and it overlaps with our DoD & DHS page by design: this one narrows to a single military department.

Army IT Contracts

6 open

This page lists active Department of the Army notices, including those from the Army Corps of Engineers, under NAICS 541511, 541512 and 541519. It is organized by issuing department, so it spans every notice type and set-aside, and it overlaps with our DoD & DHS page by design: this one narrows to a single military department.
