US Federal Contractor Registration’s Simplified Acquisition Program is designed to help businesses become registered, start marketing to procurement officers across the nation and learn how to bid on available government contracts. Total Small Businesses are considered a federal set-aside. A federal set-side is government contracting program that specifically sets aside contracting dollars every year for businesses that meet a certain criteria.

Needless to say, the small business federal set-aside marketing is a multi-billion dollar arena.
