Analysis
Today, 49 new federal contracting opportunities were posted on SAM.gov, with eight reserved specifically for small businesses, representing about 16% of total listings. All eight set-aside opportunities fall under the SBA Total Small Business Set-Aside program.

For small business contractors, the most active agencies posting set-aside opportunities include DLA Land and Maritime, which contributed four of the eight listings, along with NAVSUP Weapon Systems Support Mech, NAVFACSYSCOM Mid-Atlantic, and NAVSUP Fleet Logistics Center Yokosuka. These agencies’ consistent activity highlights sectors like manufacturing, technical training, and medical instrument production as promising areas to target. Understanding which agencies and NAICS codes are currently awarding set-asides can help refine business development efforts and improve the chances of winning contracts.
To stay competitive, small businesses should filter opportunities on SAM.gov by set-aside type to focus on relevant postings and consider setting up a daily email digest for timely updates.
