Where opportunities are published

All federal contracting opportunities are officially published on SAM.gov (System for Award Management) — free to browse, no login required for search. Thousands of new solicitations, presolicitations, special notices and sources-sought are posted every week across every industry.

The free way: search SAM.gov yourself

You can filter SAM.gov by NAICS code, set-aside (8(a), WOSB, HUBZone, SDVOSB, SBA) and posting date. It works, but it is manual: you must remember to check, re-run the same filters, and scan for what changed since yesterday — most small businesses check once a day or once a week, which is exactly how windows get missed.

The fast way: hourly automated alerts

A radar that checks SAM.gov every hour and emails you only the opportunities matching your NAICS and set-asides turns 'when I remember' into 'same-hour delivery'. Posted-to-radar latency under 60 minutes keeps the full bid window open when you first hear about it. Start free — no card required: https://pixharvest.com/#trial
