Every service we offer is designed around one goal: getting you certified, registered, and ready to bid on federal contracts as fast as the SBA's process allows.
All rates shown are Founding Client rates. These prices are locked in for clients who engage during our introductory period.
A service-connected VA disability rating doesn't just support your health and benefits — it's also what qualifies you for SDVOSB certification, which opens sole-source contracts and a higher federal contracting goal than VOSB alone. We've partnered with a consultant with direct VA medical coding and records experience to help you understand and prepare a strong claim before you file.
Our partner consultant reviews your service and medical records to assess which conditions may be service-connected and gives you an honest read on the strength of a potential claim.
If you decide to move forward, our partner consultant helps you organize supporting evidence and documentation so your claim is as strong and complete as possible before you submit it.
The initial consultation is a flat $99 and includes a full review of your records and an honest assessment of your claim. If you choose to move forward with claim preparation support afterward, that $99 is credited in full toward the total cost — you never pay for the consultation twice.
Claim preparation support starts at $349, minus your $99 consultation credit, depending on complexity.
This service is provided by an independent partner consultant, not directly by VetCert Ready, and is not a substitute for VA-accredited representation. We help you understand and prepare your claim — you file it yourself, or we can point you to a free VA-accredited attorney, claims agent, or Veterans Service Officer (VSO) to file or represent you if you'd prefer. Final pricing depends on claim complexity and is confirmed before work begins.
Most veterans who apply for VOSB or SDVOSB certification and get denied did not fail the eligibility test — they failed the formation stage. The LLC was structured wrong, the Operating Agreement was downloaded from a generic template, or the paperwork doesn't match what the SBA needs to see. Formation done right is the foundation everything else is built on.
Single-member or two-member LLC, S-Corp, or sole proprietor — the right structure depends on your goals, your partner situation, and your certification timeline. We help you choose before you file, not after.
The Operating Agreement is the document the SBA scrutinizes most carefully. It must demonstrate veteran control in five specific ways that generic templates routinely miss. We draft or review your OA with VetCert compliance built in from the start.
EIN acquisition, SAM.gov entity registration, CAGE code activation, and representations and certifications — each step in the right order, none of them skipped. This is the infrastructure that makes federal contracting possible.
The SBA reviews your business exactly as it was formed — not as you intended it. An Operating Agreement signed before you understood the control requirements cannot be fixed retroactively without triggering questions about when control was actually established. The sequence is: choose structure → draft compliant OA → file with state → get EIN → register in SAM.gov → apply for VetCert. Skipping or reordering any step creates problems downstream.
We also offer a free AI-powered Operating Agreement Generator for veterans who want to see what a compliant draft looks like before booking a consultation.
State LLC filing fees vary ($50–$500 depending on state) and are billed separately at cost. Not included in the prices above.
Three packaged paths designed for the most common veteran entrepreneurship journeys.
For veterans who are starting from scratch — no LLC yet, no certification, ready to build.
For service-disabled veterans pursuing SDVOSB certification + federal contract readiness.
For already-certified veterans ready to grow, recertify, and scale into more contracts.
Payment plans available for packages over $1,000. Government filing fees ($99–$100 per state) are charged separately at cost.
