The National Institutes of Health (NIH) spends approximately $10+ billion annually on government contracts. As a civilian agency, NIH procures a wide range of goods and services from private sector contractors.
NIH is required to award at least 23% of its contracts to small businesses. This includes set-aside programs for 8(a), HUBZone, Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB), and Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) firms. Small businesses looking to work with NIH should register in SAM.gov and ensure their NAICS codes align with the agency's procurement needs.
