Government contracts are worth $700 billion a year. Most small businesses never see a dollar of it.

The federal government is required to give 23% of all contract spending to small businesses. That's hundreds of billions of dollars for companies like yours — for IT services, construction, consulting, healthcare, and more.

But the system wasn't built for people without a team of consultants. SAM.gov, the SBA certification portals, NAICS codes, set-asides — it's a maze designed by procurement lawyers, not business owners.

GovPath changes that. We break the process into plain-English steps and walk you through each one — from your first registration to your first bid.

How GovPath works

1

Take the 5-minute quiz

Tell us about your business: your industry, size, and ownership. We match you with every federal set-aside program you qualify for.

2

Follow your checklist

We give you a personal readiness checklist — EIN, UEI, SAM.gov registration, certifications — with step-by-step guides for each one. No cold links to government websites.

3

Find contracts

Once you're registered, search real active federal opportunities by your NAICS code. Filter, save, and track the ones worth bidding on.

Built for small businesses ready to pursue federal contracts

Woman-owned businesses

If you're 51%+ woman-owned, federal law sets aside contracts specifically for you. GovPath walks you through WOSB certification.

Veteran-owned businesses

Service-disabled veteran? The SDVOSB program reserves contracts just for you. We'll walk you through the SBA certification and the VA path.

Minority-owned businesses

The SBA's 8(a) program is one of the most powerful contracting advantages available. GovPath explains whether you qualify and how to apply.

Any small business

Even without a set-aside status, small businesses get preferential treatment in federal procurement. SAM.gov registration is the first step — we'll walk you through it.
