Welcome to the U.S. Department of Energy

Office of Small and Disadvantaged Business Utilization

Under the administration of Secretary Spencer Abraham, the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is committed to increasing the contracting opportunities awarded to small and disadvantaged businesses. The Office of Small and Disadvantaged Business Utilization (OSDBU) is responsible for administering this program.

The opportunities are great. DOE purchases approximately $19 billion dollars worth of goods and services annually including facility management, remediation, construction, research and development, management and scientific consulting, plate work manufacturing, administrative services, data processing, security, engineering, and waste treatment and disposal.

Call a Small Business Specialist at (202) 586-7377 to discuss contract opportunities. Register today on DOE's Industry Interactive Procurement System (IIPS) at http://doe-iips.pr.doe.gov/.
