Small Business
Are you a small business interested in providing a product or service to the DoD? A Small Business is defined by a size standard that varies by industry. Pursuing DoD contracts requires patience, persistence, professionalism, and an in-depth understanding of federal, DoD and individual agency acquisition rules.
Other than Small Business
Other than Small Businesses (OTSBs) are businesses that exceed the size standard or maximum allowed number of employees or annual receipts for an industry to be considered "small". Generally, OTSBs are required to provide maximum practicable opportunity for small businesses to participate in their DoD contracts. Refer to the Industry Resources section below for programs and tools to help leverage relationships with small business in the procurement process.
