Example: how an Oklahoma City aircraft parts machining shop would get started

This is an illustration of our process, not a client story.

An Oklahoma City aircraft parts machining shop wants work with Tinker Air Force Base and the FAA Mike Monroney Aeronautical Center. First, we register it in SAM.gov, confirm its NAICS codes and check SBA certifications. Next, we research how those buyers purchase from small businesses and which contracts are coming up. After that, we register it in the Oklahoma Supplier Portal and prepare Oklahoma women-owned certification if it qualifies.

Frequently asked questions

Can a California-based government contracting consultant help my Oklahoma business?

Yes. Because registrations, certifications and proposals are all filed online, we can work with clients nationwide by video call.

Does Oklahoma certify minority-owned businesses?

The Oklahoma Department of Commerce has transitioned away from its state minority business certification and directs minority-owned firms to the SBA 8(a) program; it continues to offer a Women-owned Business Certification. DBE certification for transportation work is handled by ODOT.

Do Oklahoma federal buyers set aside work for small businesses?

Yes. Federal agencies and military bases in Oklahoma buy through small business set-asides, and their prime contractors have small business subcontracting goals. SAM.gov registration and the right SBA certifications put you in position for both.
