8(a) Certification Support

Helping Small Businesses Access Federal Opportunities through SBA 8(a)

The SBA 8(a) Business Development Program is a powerful federal contracting tool that helps socially and economically disadvantaged small businesses compete in the government marketplace. At Dynamic Contracts Consultants LLC, we guide you through every step of the 8(a) certification process—from eligibility analysis to application submission and post-approval strategy.

What Is the 8(a) Program?

  • Set-aside and sole-source federal contracts

  • Mentor-Protégé Program participation
