Set-aside
A set-aside is a contract only certain businesses may bid on, such as small businesses or businesses certified as women-owned, veteran-owned or disadvantaged.
On a real bid
Federal set-asides follow Small Business Administration programs. States and cities run their own certifications and goals.
A bid states the set-aside in the notice, and bidders usually need the certification in place before bids are due.
