SDVOSB Certification Strength

There are approximately 25,800 verified SDVOSB firms performing business with the Federal Government. In 2020, those firms have shared $23.8B in federal contracts. This works out to $923K per firm in federal contracts. When we look at broad lines of business, we see the following concentrations. There are around 30 million small businesses in the United States. Of those small businesses, the average revenue is around $500K. The average federal revenue that an SDVOSB firm receives provides is almost 2x the normal small businesses revenue.

Below is a breakdown by major industry classification:

As you can see the majority of federal SDVOSB spending is with services. The largest of the services for SDVOSB is Professional, Scientific and Technical Services, known for the most part as Information Technology. If we look at the numbers, 60% of IT spending with SDVOSB firms occurs in the DC, Maryland, Virginia, or DC Beltway. There are still opportunities in other States, as 40% or $4.5B does occur throughout the rest of the United States, where there is generally less competition for those dollars.
