At Get WOSB, we know how important your Women-Owned business is to you. That’s why we partner with Government agencies to bring you the quickest and simplest way to get your company certified.
What is a Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB) Certification?
Years ago, the Small Business Administration and the Federal Government noticed a lack of quality women-owned businesses in the United States.
To offset this problem and get more women in the business industry, the SBA created the Women-Owned Small Business Federal Contracting Program. This program aims to award at least 5% of all Contracting dollars to Women-Owned Businesses that complete third-party certification.
Benefits
Once you have been awarded a Women-Owned Small Business Certification, there are several benefits that your firm will begin to receive. These benefits will set you up to compete at the highest level for Government Contracts.
- Decreased competition by gaining access to exclusive bidding rights on WOSB/EDWOSB set-aside solicitations
- Increased visibility in the Government marketplace
- Marketing advantages through government exposure and logo use
- Many city, county, and state governments have WOSB/EDWOSB contracting goals to meet, meaning your business’s increased opportunity.
- Many third-party certifiers host marketing events that your business will receive info to attend
Getting a WOSB Certificate will not only provide revenue to your company in the toughest of times. But you’ll separate yourself from the competition and begin a long relationship with the largest spender in the world.

Why Do I Need to Get Certified?
The U.S. Government and its agencies spend more than 6 trillion dollars each year.
To help provide a level playing field for Women-Owned businesses, the government limits competition for the contracts they hand out strictly for businesses that participate in the Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB) Federal Contracting program.
While you can always claim to be a “Women-owned” business, only a third party like Get WOSB can certify you to receive this Government work.
