Why this category is small-business friendly

Federal janitorial and grounds-maintenance contracts are heavily set aside for small businesses — the work is geographically distributed, modular, and well-suited to local operators. Watch especially for:

• 8(a) Sole-Source awards for facilities under tight schedules
• SDVOSB set-asides — VA medical facilities heavily prefer SDVOSB-certified contractors
• HUBZone set-asides — many federal facilities are in qualifying communities
• WOSB for contractors in the qualifying NAICS list (561730 is on it)
