01 / YOUR FOUNDATION

Set up right.
Move forward with confidence.

Most beginners stall at setup. We walk through every step with you, in the order the government expects—so you can focus on what comes next.

01

Set up your business

No business yet? We start here.

  • Choose your structure (LLC, corporation, sole proprietor)
  • Register with your state and get your EIN from the IRS
  • Open a business bank account for government payments
  • Pick the NAICS codes that match what you sell
02

Register on SAM.govMost important

Without it, you can't bid on any federal contract

SAM.gov is the government's official vendor registration. Every federal buyer checks it, and you must be registered to bid and get paid. We help you complete it correctly the first time.

  • Login.gov account and Unique Entity ID (UEI)
  • Entity validation and your CAGE code
  • Banking and payment (EFT) setup
  • Small business size status for your NAICS codes
03

Complete your Reps & Certs

Representations & Certifications in SAM.gov

Your Reps & Certs are the official statements you make to the government about your business. Contracting officers rely on them for every award, and a wrong answer can cost you a contract or put you out of compliance. We go through them with you, question by question.

  • Business size and socioeconomic status (women-owned, veteran-owned, HUBZone, and more)
  • Ownership, control, and affiliate information
  • Compliance statements such as tax, labor, debarment, and telecom requirements
  • Keeping them accurate when your business changes, and at every annual renewal
04

Get certified as a small business

Through the SBA and your state

Certifications open the door to contracts set aside for small businesses. We help you find the ones you qualify for and prepare your applications.

  • SBA certifications: 8(a), Women-Owned (WOSB/EDWOSB), HUBZone, and Veteran-Owned (VetCert)
  • State certifications: in Maryland, the Small Business Reserve (SBR) and Minority Business Enterprise (MBE) programs; other states have their own
05

Defense Logistics Agency bid board

DIBBS is where the Defense Logistics Agency posts thousands of supply requests. We help you register with your CAGE code, search solicitations by product, and submit quotes.

06

Set up on Unison Marketplace

Federal reverse auctions

Agencies use Unison Marketplace to buy products and services through reverse auctions. We help you register, set up your profile, and learn how bidding rounds work.

A LITTLE MORE CLARITY

Your questions, answered.

I don't have a business yet. Can I join?

Yes. We start with your business setup: entity, EIN, bank account, and NAICS codes. Then we move into your registrations.

Why is SAM.gov first?

You can't bid on any federal contract without an active SAM.gov registration. It's also where your UEI, CAGE code, and small business status live, and other platforms like DIBBS depend on it.

Which small business certifications can I get?

It depends on who owns and runs your business and where it's located. We help you see which SBA certifications (8(a), WOSB/EDWOSB, HUBZone, VetCert) and state certifications you qualify for, then prepare your applications.

Do I need DIBBS, Unison, and eMMA too?

We help you choose based on what you sell and where. SAM.gov comes first for everyone. Then DIBBS for defense supplies, Unison Marketplace for reverse auctions, and eMMA for Maryland state and local work.

What if my SAM.gov approval takes a while?

That's normal. You keep working on research, pricing, and proposals while you wait, so you're ready to bid as soon as you're active.

Is this only for challenge attendees?

Yes. This offer is reserved for people who joined the 5-Day GovCon Challenge.
