What is a HUBZone Certification?

The Historically Underutilized Business Zones (HUBZone) program was enacted into law as part of the Small Business Reauthorization Act of 1997.  The program is designed to help small businesses in urban and rural communities gain preferential access to federal procurement opportunities.  Small businesses can earn a HUBZone certification by employing staff in HUBZone Designated Areas and by maintaining a principal office in a designated HUBZone.

Advantages of the HUBZone Certification to the Government

A HUBZone procurement enables Federal, State, & Local government agency contracting officers and contracting specialists to significantly streamline procurement and provide their government customers with a faster turnaround.

Competitive: HUBZone contracts may be awarded if the contracting officer has a reasonable expectation that at least two qualified HUBZone small businesses will submit offers and the contract can be awarded at a fair market price.

Sole Source: HUBZone contracts may be awarded if the contracting officer does not have a reasonable expectation that two or more qualified HUBZone small businesses will submit offers, determines that the qualified HUBZone small business is responsible, and determines that the contract can be awarded at a fair price. The government estimate cannot exceed $5 million for manufacturing requirements or $3 million for all other requirements.

Full and open competition contracts may be awarded with a price evaluation preference. The offer of the HUBZone small business will be considered lower than the offer of a non-HUBZone/non-small business provided that the offer of the HUBZone small business is no more than 10 percent higher. Federal government agencies are required to award a defined percentage rate (3%) of all awards directly or indirectly to HUBZone companies and suppliers. Qualified HUBZone companies like decision analysis partners LLC help the government meet this goal.

Commitment to the HUBZone Program
