Get certified as a Veteran-Owned Small Business. VA contracts + federal preference.
VOSB certification is for businesses where 51%+ is owned and controlled by a veteran. Certification gives you eligibility for VA set-aside contracts (the VA's procurement program for veteran-owned firms) plus a federal preference across other agencies. As of 2023, VOSB certification consolidated under SBA's VetCert program (replacing the VA's separate Center for Verification and Evaluation). We handle the application.
How we handle VOSB Certification, end-to-end.
VOSB certification is for businesses where 51%+ is owned and controlled by a veteran.
Veteran status verification
We verify your DD-214 (veteran discharge documentation) and confirm you meet the SBA's veteran definition: served on active duty in any branch, honorably discharged, or currently serving and verified.
Ownership and control
Veteran owner(s) must hold 51%+ unconditional ownership AND control day-to-day management. Documentation: formation docs, operating agreement or bylaws, member/shareholder records.
Small business size confirmation
Must qualify as small under the SBA size standard for your primary NAICS code. We confirm based on 3-year average revenue or employee count.
