Gov Contracting DIY Starter Kit

Go from “not registered” to “first bid submitted” without paying anyone to do the paperwork

Government agencies spend billions every year with small businesses, but most owners never get past the registration maze. The Gov Contracting DIY Starter Kit turns that maze into three clear checklists you can finish at your kitchen table.

What’s inside:

• Before You Start: a realistic timeline and what’s actually free (SAM.gov registration costs $0)
• Checklist 1, SAM.gov Registration Readiness: the documents, UEI steps and details that commonly cause delays
• Checklist 2, Capability Statement: a fill-in template for the one-page document buyers ask for
• Checklist 3, Your First Bid: a bid/no-bid scorecard so you only chase contracts you can win
• Pro Tips From the Field: choosing 3 core NAICS codes, why virtual addresses cause problems, following agency departments, and using SBA SubNet once your UEI is active
• Resource Links: official free sites including SAM.gov, SBA certifications, PIEE, IPP, and Alabama and city bid portals

Who it’s for: contractors, trades, consultants and service businesses in Alabama and across the U.S. who want to sell to federal, state or local government.

Format: 11-page PDF, instant download. Read it on any phone, tablet or computer.
