Doing Business with the Department of Defense: The Basics
Guide to Marketing your Business to DoD
DoD Procurement Forecasting
This directory, by state, provides the names and addresses of DoD prime contractors, the names and telephone numbers of Small Business Liaison Officers (SBLOs), and the products and services supplied to the DoD. The report is generated from data mined through DoD Prime Contractor’s contracts and subcontracting plans. Please note that the DoD OSBP does not maintain the data in this directory. The directory reflects data as of September 15, 2008. We encourage you to investigate potential opportunities with these firms. Many also have websites that may be useful and we encourage you to explore teaming options.
DoD Small Business Specialists
The Military Services and some Defense Agencies have small business specialists at each of their procurement and contract management offices to assist small businesses, including veteran-owned, service-disabled veteran-owned, HUBZone, small disadvantaged, and women-owned small business concerns in marketing their products and services with the DoD. Among other services, these specialists provide information and guidance on (1) defense procurement procedures, (2) how to be placed on the solicitation mailing lists, and (3) how to identify prime contract and subcontract opportunities.
The Army, Navy, Air Force, and Defense Logistics Agency maintain the names of Small Business Specialists associated with their organizations. Links to these websites are below.
Non-Appropriated Fund Customers
Although small business program requirements do not apply to non-appropriated fund expenditures, you should not overlook these potential customers. Non-appropriated fund customers operate similar to non-profit organizations and include commissaries, exchanges, recreation and fitness centers, dining at officer/enlisted/civilian clubs, and barber/beauty services, just to name a few.
