SDVOSB GovCon Platform — Florida
SDVOSB federal contracts
in Florida.
Florida's concentration of combatant commands — SOUTHCOM, CENTCOM, and SOCOM — creates consistent SDVOSB demand in logistics, IT, and professional services, while USACE Jacksonville's civil works portfolio drives substantial construction set-aside activity. In FY2025, federal agencies missed the 5% SDVOSB goal for the first time since 2011 — creating a $2B gap that agencies in Florida must close in FY2026.
