How to check or correct this record
The file sometimes leaves a certification out, and a newer one won't be in it yet. Self-reported business types are what the firm says about itself on SAM.gov; they aren't SBA certifications. This page doesn't show SBA's VetCert certification for veteran-owned firms; SBA's search below does.
Check or correct this record at the source: open its SAM.gov entry, or search UEI CMWMQXNKML45 () in SAM.gov's entity search (free sign-in) and in SBA's Small Business Search (formerly DSBS), which shows SBA certifications including VetCert. The business can update its details in its SAM.gov registration and its certifications at certifications.sba.gov.

Open contracts in The Colorado Express, LLC's NAICS codes
7 open federal opportunities on SAM.gov use one of The Colorado Express, LLC's NAICS codes and may be open to it: no set-aside, or, in the code it is registered small under, a small business set-aside or one for a status it reports about itself on SAM.gov (veteran-owned). Here are a few, those in its primary code first (none of these are in Colorado right now), then the soonest due.
Confirm eligibility first. The Colorado Express, LLC's 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.
