Small Business

The Department of Defense (DOD) offers two markets for small, small disadvantaged, and small women-owned business concerns seeking defense contracting and defense subcontracting opportunities. The first market encompasses prime contracting; the second market encompasses Defense subcontracting opportunities.

Prime contracting opportunities with Galveston District, Corps of Engineers can be found here.
Prime contracting opportunities with other Federal Agencies can be found in the Commerce Business Daily.

The DoD requires major prime contractors and subcontractors receiving contracts valued over $500,000 ($1 million for construction) to develop plans and goals for subcontracting with small, small disadvantaged, and small women-owned businesses. This requirement generates a significant subcontracting opportunity market.
