Webinar: Top Federal Opps of 2026: What Small Businesses Should Watch Now

Top Federal Opps of 2026: What Small Businesses Should Watch Now
A practical capture briefing on the contract vehicle shifts shaping FY26
Recent federal acquisition signals suggest a more favorable opportunity landscape in 2026. Organizations that align early capture strategy and pre-proposal preparation with the upcoming solicitation pipeline will be positioned to drive sustainable revenue growth and improve PWin before RFP release. As agencies finalize FY26 acquisition plans, multiple high-revenue contract vehicles are entering recompete, expansion, or on-ramp phases — and for small businesses, the window to position early is already opening.
In this webinar, OST Global Solutions will break down the top federal opportunity areas of 2026 based on scope, timing, small business access, and where agencies are consolidating buying power. Rather than focusing on a long list of solicitations, we’ll focus on what matters most for small businesses: where the spending is moving, what eligibility gates are becoming more important, and what capture moves should happen now to avoid late-stage scrambling.
If your 2026 growth plan depends on prime wins or meaningful subcontract roles on major vehicles, this session will help you prioritize your focus and build a realistic capture plan early, before the market crowds in.
