Help Your New Hampshire Business Sell to Government.

Government buyers, federal, state, and municipal, actively look for small businesses. The barrier is usually not size, it is knowing the steps. We get your company set up and pointed in the right direction: registration, a real capabilities statement, and a practical first move.

Complimentary, 30 minutes, no obligation.

You have heard there is real money in government work, but SAM.gov, NAICS codes, set-asides, and capabilities statements read like a foreign language, and the advice online is either vague or aimed at big contractors. You do not need a capture team yet. You need someone to get you set up and show you the first real step.

How does a small business start selling to the government?

The practical first steps are to register in SAM.gov and get a Unique Entity ID, confirm your NAICS codes and any small-business set-asides you qualify for, write a real capabilities statement, and learn where opportunities are posted. From there you pursue direct awards or team with an established prime as a subcontractor while you build past performance.

Who it is for

Established New Hampshire small businesses that want to add government, federal, state, or municipal, as a customer, and want a straight path to get started rather than a year of confusion.

What we help you do

  • Register in SAM.gov and secure your Unique Entity ID
  • Confirm your NAICS codes and eligible small-business set-asides
  • Build a sharp, buyer-ready capabilities statement
  • Learn where opportunities are posted and how to read them
  • Identify teaming and subcontracting on-ramps with primes
  • Choose a realistic first target instead of chasing everything

What an engagement looks like

We start with a complimentary conversation to see whether government sales fit your business. Getting-set-up work is then scoped to what you need, and many owners keep a light Advisor retainer so they have steady guidance as they take their first pursuits.

It also does not include legal, accounting, or certification adjudication, where required, we coordinate with the appropriate professionals and agencies.
Common Questions

What owners ask us first

What is a capabilities statement?

A capabilities statement is a one-page summary that tells a government buyer what you do, your differentiators, your codes and certifications, and how to reach you. It is the basic calling card for government sales, and most small businesses either lack one or have a weak one.

Do you write proposals or run a full capture program?

OnShoreWave focuses on getting your small business ready and pointed the right way. Deeper public-sector strategy, capture, and large-program pursuit are handled through David Haberland's public-sector advisory at DavidHaberland.com and SecureFi, and we connect you when that is the right next step.

How much does government readiness help cost?

The first conversation is complimentary. Getting-set-up work is scoped and quoted after that call, and many owners keep an ongoing Advisor retainer from $1,500 per month (New Hampshire local rate) for steady guidance. Out-of-state and enterprise pricing is higher. Pricing is fixed by tier.

Is my business too small to sell to the government?

Often no. Federal, state, and municipal buyers actively seek small businesses, and small-business set-asides exist for that reason. Teaming with a prime is also a realistic on-ramp while you build past performance.
