What qualifies as HUBZone

Your principal office must be in a designated HUBZone, and 35% of employees must live in a HUBZone. SBA certification is free and processing is typically fast once the application is complete.

The competitive edge

HUBZone firms get two advantages: set-aside contracts restricted to HUBZone businesses, and a price preference on competitive awards — the government can pay 10% more to keep the contract in the program.

Why timing decides wins

HUBZone set-asides are posted at irregular intervals across agencies. Missing a posting by a week often means missing the bid entirely. A set-aside-filtered radar for your NAICS is the difference between first in line and never in line.
