Go to the Certification Management System at sctrca.gob2g.com, scroll to the bottom of the page, and click Apply for Certification Online. Create an account, or log in with your business email.
Come to one of our workshops or the bi-weekly virtual office hours, or book a call with a certification specialist. You can also read what each certification covers and who qualifies on our Certifications page.
Business Enterprise Program: there is no cost for initial certification or recertification if your firm is headquartered in Supply SA’s jurisdiction and registered as a domestic entity. If it is headquartered outside the jurisdiction or registered as a foreign entity, the initial application fee is $350 and each renewal after the first four years is $150. Pay by cashier’s check, business check, or money order made payable to Supply SA.
Disadvantaged Business Enterprise Program: there are no fees.
They show that your firm meets the eligibility requirements of the Business Enterprise Program or the Disadvantaged Business Enterprise Program. Those include ownership, management, control, expertise, and independence.
Submit an official statement on your company letterhead, signed by the majority owner, explaining why the item doesn’t apply.
Upload them through the Q&A tab in your application, or send them to the certification specialist assigned to you. General questions can go to support@supply-sa.org.
Open the NAICS codes tab in your application and search with keywords for your services. If you still can’t find the right code, call the Census Bureau’s NAICS line at 1-888-756-2427.
Local SMWVBE applications (the Business Enterprise Program) take 14 to 30 days once every document is submitted and complete. The Disadvantaged Business Enterprise Program can take up to 90 days.
Incomplete applications aren’t accepted. If we ask for more information and don’t hear back, your file can be closed for six months.
Supply SA certifies firms for many agencies, and new and renewal applications arrive every day. We also visit every firm applying to the Disadvantaged Business Enterprise Program, and make random site visits for the Business Enterprise Program.
No. We no longer expedite applications. Every business gets the same processing time, based on complete and correct information.
No. Certification doesn’t place you in a government entity’s database. Register with each agency you want to work with. Their procurement pages are on our Partner portals page.
Business Enterprise Program (SMWVBE): yes. A new certification is valid for four years. After that, you renew every two years with a shorter process: an affidavit confirming nothing substantive has changed, a Personal Net Worth statement, and, if we ask, up to two years of personal income tax returns. Send your renewal application within the 60 days before your certification expires.
Disadvantaged Business Enterprise Program: certification doesn’t expire, but every year you must submit an Annual Update Affidavit with the supporting documents it lists. If you don’t, decertification begins.
Your file closes when your certification expires. You then have a six-month grace period: send your renewal within six months of the expiration date and we can reopen your file instead of you starting over. After six months, your certification is fully inactive and you’ll need to submit a new application.
Tell Supply SA within 30 days of any material change: address, phone, email, ownership, services, or business structure. If you don’t, your file may be closed. If your Tax ID changes, you must reapply as a new company.
Log in at sctrca.gob2g.com with your business email, which is always your username. Choose to report a change to your certification record, then submit an Expansion Application.
For new NAICS codes, describe the product or service you’re adding and include support documents, such as an executed contract, invoices, or canceled checks. A site visit may be required.
Yes. Book a call with one of our specialists, and they can set up an in-person meeting.
Yes. The Texas Comptroller runs it, and Supply SA does not certify for VetHUB. Eligibility is now limited to small businesses owned and operated by veterans with a service-connected disability of 20% or more. Businesses certified before based on race, ethnicity, or sex no longer qualify unless a service-disabled veteran owns them.
The certification process itself is the same.
