FBO.Gov Has Moved

On Nov. 12, 2019, the FedBizOps website FBO.Gov was retired, and beta.SAM.Gov has taken its place as the new authoritative source for Contract Opportunities. 

For the most part, the transition appears to have gone smoothly, according to the General Services Administration (click here to listen to a recent interview with a GSA senior executive on the Federal News Network about the current status of “Contract Opportunities” at BETA.SAM.GOV). 

There are additional resources posted at the beta.SAM.Gov website to provide information and training for contractors.

We will post additional information, tips, and future updates about the new Contract Opportunities website - so, stay tuned! 

If you have ideas or suggestions for improvement, please use the “provide feedback” button on the beta.SAM.gov website.
