# FedOpp

> FedOpp (https://fedopp.com) is an AI Chief Contracting Officer for small parts suppliers bidding federal work. It is DIBBS and DLA bidding software and a SAM.gov opportunity search tool: it watches DLA DIBBS, SAM.gov and prime subcontract notices, reads each solicitation, answers bid/no-bid questions, checks NSN and CAGE award history and builds DIBBS batch quote files. FedOpp costs $199/month after a 7-day free trial, plus $49/month per extra user (a $55/month DIBBS-only plan is also available). Customers submit on SAM.gov and DIBBS themselves; FedOpp does not submit bids and is not a parts marketplace.

## What FedOpp does, in one list

- Sources checked every business day: DIBBS RFQs, SAM.gov notices, DLA Urgent Need, the DLA no-bid list, prime contractor subcontract notices, and SBIR/STTR award notices.
- Scoring: each row is scored against the customer's Match Profile (NAICS, FSC, NSNs, certifications, set-asides, approved sources) and marked Pursue, Review, Skip, or Incomplete. Pursue, Skip, and More like this teach it what the shop wants.
- Checks before a quote: approved source and set-aside, vendor lead time against the RFQ delivery days, and the last award price.
- Research: 17.0 million NSN items (PUB LOG, as of Oct 2, 2026) with item and award information, and 4.2 million CAGE records (as of Oct 15, 2026), in the same login as the solicitation.
- Watchlist email: a watch on a NAICS code, an NSN, a CAGE, a keyword, or a company name emails the user when a matching SAM.gov notice or DIBBS RFQ posts, with the fit check on the message.
- Pursuits: stages, notes, and deadlines on one list. Buyer and supplier email drafts open in the user's own mail app; the user sends them.
- DIBBS batch quote file: built in DLA's file layout. The user uploads it on DIBBS.
- AI: Contract Reader (plain-English brief of an RFQ or solicitation PDF, with the page it read; the file is not saved) and Ask CCO (bid or no-bid help from the profile, the FAR, the DFARS, and that solicitation). 200 Contract Reader passes and 200 Ask CCO questions a month per account. Research help, not legal advice.
