What we leave out: services, construction, sole-source awards, sources sought, IT hardware, medical items, weapons and armor, anything needing a clearance, and Defense Logistics Agency part-number buys (titles like “53--BOLT,MACHINE”), which usually require the exact approved part. Categories come from the Product Service Code and NAICS code on each SAM.gov notice, so a few bids may be filed in an unexpected place.

Honest caution: reselling to the government carries real risk. You may have to buy the goods before you're paid, specs and delivery terms can be stricter than they look, a late or wrong delivery can be rejected, and shipping can wipe out a thin margin. Most quotes don't win, and there's no guaranteed profit.
