Questions

What is a software RFP?

A software RFP (request for proposals) is a notice in which a government agency asks companies to license and support software, with a price and a proposal sent by a deadline. Federal agencies publish them on SAM.gov as solicitations, combined synopsis/solicitations or requests for quotes; presolicitations and sources sought notices announce them earlier.

How many software RFPs are open right now?

38 on Nov 6, 2026, from 15 federal agencies in 9 states. 175 more are announced (presolicitations and sources sought notices). 8 of the open bids are set aside for small businesses. The list is updated every day from SAM.gov.

Which NAICS codes do software government contracts use?

Bids for this service mostly use 513210 (Software Publishers), 541519 (Other Computer Related Services), 541511 (Custom Computer Programming Services) and 541512 (Computer Systems Design Services). Check the NAICS code in each notice: it decides the size standard for small-business set-asides.

How much are software contracts worth?

The middle half of the 61 recent awards with a published amount was between $188.7K and $2.1M (median $534.4K), from SAM.gov award notices. The award amount is the value in the notice, often including options.

How do I bid on software government contracts?

Register your business in SAM.gov (free) to get a Unique Entity ID, check that your NAICS code and size fit the notice, read the full solicitation and its amendments on SAM.gov, and send your offer before the deadline. Set-aside bids are limited to eligible small businesses, such as 8(a), HUBZone, SDVOSB or WOSB firms.
