Selling to the Department of Veterans Affairs
The Department of Veterans Affairs runs the largest integrated health care system in the United States, and its contracting reflects that: medical services and equipment, facility construction and maintenance, and a very large IT portfolio. The VA is also the single most important agency for veteran-owned businesses.

Small-business notes
The VA is uniquely important for SDVOSB and VOSB firms. Under the Veterans First Contracting Program, the VA must consider setting acquisitions aside for verified veteran-owned businesses ahead of other small-business categories — a preference that exists nowhere else in the federal government.
