Small business set-aside notices by category (free samples)
These are the notices in FedSonar's current free sample set that carry a set-aside, sorted into FedSonar's seven categories. Each one links to the original notice on SAM.gov.
Data: SAM.gov Contract Opportunities file of Oct 16, 2026, 8:30 PM PT.
5 of the 26 free sample notices list a set-aside: 3 small business, 1 WOSB and 1 8(a). The other 21 are open to all or list none.
This is a sample, not every notice: FedSonar shows up to 4 free sample leads per category, and this page lists only those. Posted dates are shown on each card, so you can see how recent each notice is. The page is rebuilt when the free sample set is refreshed.
SI stands for super intelligence, the term US federal agencies increasingly use for what used to be called artificial intelligence.
