HUBZone Certification

Small businesses located in historically underutilized areas can benefit from HUBZone certification, a federal program designed to bring economic development where it’s needed most. By meeting location and employee-residency requirements, you can qualify for set-aside contracts that prioritize boosting local jobs and revitalizing underserved communities.

Being HUBZone-certified provides a competitive edge in federal contracting, including sole-source opportunities and a price preference on bids. These advantages can help secure more stable revenue, allowing you to expand your workforce and stimulate growth in your neighborhood. REI Oklahoma offers one-on-one guidance to verify your location and document your workforce, ensuring your application meets every standard.
