Live small-business contract notices for California and the Bay Area
Every morning we pull the full set of active federal contract notices from SAM.gov and keep the ones that matter to our members: open for response, in California or the Bay Area, in the trades our members work in, and flagged for small business where the agency has said so.
Six tiers, so you only read what you can bid.
Everything you need to decide in one line.
New notices are marked so you can scan in minutes. Notices with past deadlines are removed automatically.
We show the code the agency used. And keep the ones with none.
Agencies reserve many purchases for small businesses, and some for 8(a), HUBZone, women-owned and service-disabled-veteran-owned firms. About half of all notices carry no code at all. We keep those too and label them, because many are still won by small firms.
Four notice types, three different reactions.
Combined Synopsis / Solicitation
A live request for quotes or bids. Read the Instructions to Offerors first, then price it.
Solicitation
The formal request. Deadlines are firm. Bring it to the Bid Desk early.
Presolicitation
A solicitation is coming. Use the time to line up pricing, bonding and partners.
Sources Sought
The agency is researching the market and wants capability statements. The easiest way onto their radar.
