AwardWatchdog is a free, no-login tracker of federal small-business set-asides, sources sought notices and upcoming recompetes, built on SAM.gov and USAspending.gov data. If your company helps small contractors win and deliver federal work, a sponsorship puts you in front of them while they are actively looking for bids.
Owners and business development leads at small federal contractors: 8(a), SDVOSB, WOSB/EDWOSB, HUBZone and other small businesses looking for set-aside work. They are the people who buy proposal help, compliance and accounting services, bonding, financing, software and teaming partners.
We're new and growing. AwardWatchdog launched in October 2026, and search engines started crawling it in mid-October. Our audience is still small, and our founding prices reflect that. Here is what the site covers today, counted automatically at the last update (Oct 17, 2026, 8:35 PM ET):
The email digest has just opened for signups (with double opt-in). Ask us for current visitor, click and subscriber numbers. We share real figures and never round up.
