HUBZone Contract Opportunities

By the GovPrimer teamUpdated January 1, 2026

Find federal contracts set aside for certified HUBZone firms — businesses located in Historically Underutilized Business Zones — filtered by NAICS and agency.

What the HUBZone program is

The HUBZone (Historically Underutilized Business Zone) program helps small businesses in designated economically distressed areas win federal contracts. To qualify, a firm's principal office must be in a HUBZone and at least 35% of employees must live in a HUBZone. Certified firms can compete for HUBZone set-asides, receive sole-source awards below thresholds, and get a price evaluation preference in full and open competition.

How to find HUBZone opportunities

  • Filter opportunities to the HUBZone set-aside type.
  • Combine the HUBZone filter with your NAICS codes for relevant results.
  • Track award data to find agencies that meet HUBZone goals through frequent awards.
  • Watch forecasts for upcoming HUBZone-directed work.
  • Enable alerts so new HUBZone set-asides reach you while open.

Frequently asked questions

How do I find HUBZone contract opportunities?

Search opportunities filtered to the HUBZone set-aside type and your NAICS codes. GovPrimer lets you save these searches and get alerts, and study award data to find agencies that frequently award HUBZone contracts.

What qualifies a business as a HUBZone firm?

The business must be a small business, have its principal office in a designated HUBZone, and have at least 35% of its employees residing in a HUBZone, with SBA certification confirming eligibility.

What is the HUBZone price evaluation preference?

In full and open competition, certified HUBZone firms can receive a price evaluation preference, meaning a non-HUBZone offer may be treated as higher in the evaluation, improving the HUBZone firm's competitiveness.
