Small business contracts in California

Name: Total Small Business set-aside contract opportunities in California
Creator: GovBidReport

27 open federal solicitations are reserved for Small business firms with work to be performed in California. Large businesses can't compete for these.

Reserved for firms that qualify as small under the solicitation's NAICS size standard. No special certification beyond an accurate SAM.gov registration and size representation — but misrepresenting size is a false-statement offense, and many of these still layer on licenses, bonding, and experience minimums.

You aren't limited to these 27. Another 1,680 open Small business set-asides list no fixed place of performance — remote, nationwide, or delivery-based work a California firm can bid on the same as anyone. See all 2,281 Small business bids →
