Federal bid alerts by trade

Contractors search for work the way they sell it — by trade, not by dense NAICS tables. Solicitation Daily groups public SAM.gov Contract Opportunities into plain-English trades, shows recent open counts on each page, and can email new matches for the trades you pick.

Pick a trade below for where the work is, which agencies post most, set-aside mix, and sample open notices. Or get free weekly Top 5 alerts / Pro daily matches filtered to your trades, states, and set-asides.

Filter by set-aside, not only by trade

Many small contractors only pursue work reserved for certified firms. Solicitation Daily can filter or prioritize SB, SDVOSB, VOSB, WOSB/EDWOSB, 8(a), HUBZone, and Indian small business set-asides. Read set-asides explained and how to find SDVOSB opportunities.
