Federal IT solicitations come from everywhere, because every agency runs systems. The heaviest issuers are the Department of Veterans Affairs (whose technology acquisition centers buy software, integration, and support continuously), the Defense Department's service branches and agencies, and civilian departments modernizing legacy systems under mandates that never stop. The work splits into recognizable shapes: software licenses and renewals, development and integration services, cloud and hosting, cybersecurity, and helpdesk or operations support.

This category maps from NAICS 5415 (computer systems design), 5112 (software publishers), 5182 (data processing and hosting), and 5191/5192 (information services). Deadlines run shorter than newcomers expect: license renewals and commodity buys frequently post as combined synopsis/solicitation notices with one to two weeks to respond, while larger development and integration RFPs allow 30 days or more. If you sell IT, a daily scan matters more here than in any other category; a weekly check misses closings entirely.

IT & Software questions

What bidders ask.

How many IT & Software RFPs are open right now?

As of July 28, 2026, RFPhound counts 219 open federal IT & Software opportunities on SAM.gov. 54 of them are nationwide, with no single state named as the place of performance, and the rest are spread across the states shown on this page. Counts regenerate every morning.

Who issues the most federal IT RFPs?

The Department of Veterans Affairs is among the most prolific, through its Technology Acquisition Center and network contracting offices, followed by the Defense Department's services and agencies and the large civilian departments. GSA schedules and government-wide vehicles carry a further share that never appears as open solicitations.

What NAICS codes should an IT firm watch?

541511, 541512, 541519 (custom programming, systems design, other computer services) under the 5415 family, plus 511210 for software, 518210 for hosting and data processing, and 519 information services. This category aggregates exactly those families from the live feed.

Why are IT response windows so short?

A large share of federal IT buying is commodity-shaped: license renewals, subscription continuations, and brand-name-or-equal quotes posted as combined synopsis/solicitations. Those routinely close within 7 to 14 days of posting, which is why daily alerts beat weekly digests in this category.
