Check or correct this record at the source: open its SAM.gov entry, or search UEI J3E2TKSJ8GT1 () in SAM.gov's entity search (free sign-in) and in SBA's Small Business Search (formerly DSBS), which shows SBA certifications including VetCert.

Open contracts in Spark Industries MFG LLC's NAICS codes
965 open federal opportunities on SAM.gov use one of Spark Industries MFG LLC's NAICS codes and may be open to it: no set-aside, or, in the codes it is registered small under, a small business set-aside or one for a status it reports about itself on SAM.gov (service-disabled veteran-owned). Here are a few, those in its primary code first, then those in Virginia, then the soonest due.
Confirm eligibility first. Spark Industries MFG LLC's service-disabled veteran-owned status is self-reported on SAM.gov, and this page can't confirm an SBA certification for it, so set-asides for it may be relevant but may not be open to it: SDVOSB and VOSB set-asides need SBA VetCert certification.
