Direct Answers for Commercial Contractors
Everything you need to know about Simplified Acquisition Thresholds, bidding compliance, and how GovTender works.
Why are contracts under $250,000 so much easier to win?
Under FAR 13.003 (Federal Acquisition Regulation) and FAR 19.502-2, acquisitions exceeding the micro-purchase threshold ($10,000 to $20,000) but under the Simplified Acquisition Threshold ($250,000) are statutorily reserved exclusively for small businesses. Agencies use streamlined proceduresโmeaning no 200-page proposals, no heavy commercial bonding requirements, and decisions are made quickly by local base Contracting Officers.
What if my company isn't registered on SAM.gov yet?
For federal micro-purchases under $10,000 (and up to $20,000 for emergency facility repairs), contracting officers can purchase directly from trade contractors using a Government Purchase Card (GPC) with zero SAM.gov registration required. For contracts between $10k and $250k, registration on SAM.gov is freeโand GovTender provides a step-by-step CAGE code & Unique Entity Identifier (UEI) registration guide in your welcome kit.
How does GovTender filter out junk and expired solicitations?
GovTender runs an automated 6-point qualification screen. Any solicitation expiring in less than 48 hours is discarded so you never scramble. Contracts lacking clear scope, missing technical specifications, or containing predatory terms are filtered out. You only see bids with verified scopes and accessible Contracting Officer contacts.
Can I change my trade or expand my radius later?
Yes. You can update your home base city, zip code, trade classifications, and mileage radius (from 25 to 100 miles) at any time by replying directly to your daily briefing email or contacting our team at [email protected].
How does the morning dispatch work?
Every morning at 06:00 AM CST, our team indexes overnight filings from SAM.gov, regional DOD purchasing offices, and Florida municipal portals. The system screens them, matches them to your trade code and mileage radius, and delivers a clean 1-page contractor bid brief to your estimator before crews head to the jobsite.
What is your cancellation policy?
GovTender operates with zero lock-in contracts. You can cancel your subscription at any time with a single click via your customer portal or by notifying us. You maintain access until the end of your billing cycle.
