SBA Women-Owned Small Business Federal Contracting Program (WOSB)

The goal of the SBA Women Owned Small Business Federal Contracting Program (WOSB) is to provide greater access to federal contracting opportunities for WOSBs and economically-disadvantaged women-owned small businesses (EDWOSBs). The Program allows contracting officers to set aside specific contracts for certified WOSBs and EDWOSBs and will help federal agencies achieve the existing statutory goal of five percent of federal contracting dollars being awarded to WOSBs.

WOSB Program requirements are now managed through beta.certify.sba.gov
