Federal Contractors Must Complete WOSB Registration To Qualify For Set Aside Contracts

By Celeste Osborne


Women-Owned Small Business or WOSB Registration can help small businesses gain access to coveted federal set aside contract opportunities. This contracting program is available to any small business that is at least 51% owned by one or more women. For qualifying businesses, this program offers exclusive access to federal contracts that are only offered to registered vendors.

In order to meet federal contracting mandates, each agency is required to award at least 5% of their contracting budget to women owned businesses. This has resulted in nearly $20 billion awarded to women owned firms in 2013. The same year, over 260,000 individual contracts were awarded to women owned businesses. These same opportunities are available to any contractor that has completed their WOSB Registration.

Before any business can bid on these set aside contracts, they must complete all required registrations, including their WOSB registration. This registration requires that multiple forms be completed as well as the submission of supporting documents which prove the firm's eligibility for the program. If this registration is not complete and correct, the business can face a multitude of consequences from delays to fines and penalties. For these reasons, it is important that contractors use reliable resources to finish their registration.

The most reliable way for businesses to complete their registration is to use the services of US Federal Contractor Registration. Just like when business owners hire an accountant to complete their taxes properly, US Federal Contractor Registration helps firms complete and file their contractor registration quickly and accurately.
