HUBZone Certification Assistance

At Vendor Registration Expert, we specialize in guiding businesses through the HUBZone (Historically Underutilized Business Zone) certification process. Our goal is to empower your business to leverage the benefits of HUBZone certification, enabling participation in government set-asides and securing a competitive advantage in federal contracting.

HUBZone certification is a program administered by the Small Business Administration (SBA) that helps small businesses in designated urban and rural communities gain preferential access to federal procurement opportunities. The program's purpose is to promote economic development and employment growth in distressed areas by providing access to more federal contracting opportunities.

Why Pursue HUBZone Certification? 

Competitive Edge

HUBZone certified businesses get a 10% price evaluation preference in full and open contract competitions, as well as subcontracting opportunities.

Set-Aside Contracts

The federal government aims to award at least 3% of all dollars for federal prime contracts to HUBZone-certified companies.

Sole Source Contracts

HUBZone firms can receive sole-source contracts, which can be awarded without a competitive bidding process for contracts up to $4 million for goods and services and $6.5 million for manufacturing.

Joint Ventures and Partnerships

HUBZone firms can form joint ventures with other businesses to compete for contracts, enhancing their ability to perform on larger contracts.
