DOD Contractor Account Set Up

Set UP Your DOD Government Bidding Account

Launching a defense business unit requires specific steps. There are some basic registrations that can be completed on your own and there are no barriers to entry to become a government contractor. There are also no pre-requisite certifications. All you need is a company, a bank account and a Dunn and Brad Street account to create your cage code, which is your 5-digit government account number. All the above registrations have no cost. Once you have a cage code you are eligible to bid on and win government contracts.
