How federal agencies buy IT and software
Agencies buy IT through RFQs and combined synopsis/solicitations for commercial products, orders on governmentwide contracts such as GSA's Multiple Award Schedule, and full RFPs for larger systems. Notices ask for past performance on similar work and key personnel, and defense work that handles controlled unclassified information needs NIST SP 800-171 controls and, increasingly, a CMMC assessment. Common NAICS codes: 541511, 541512, 541519 and 518210; hardware resellers use 423430.
Contracting officers set a purchase aside for small businesses when they expect offers from at least two capable small firms at fair prices (the rule of two). Whether a firm counts as small depends on the SBA size standard for the notice's NAICS code, in annual receipts or employees, and offerors need an active SAM.gov registration with a Unique Entity ID.
