Getting your biobased products listed for federal buyers: what we need from you
You have already invested in ASTM D6866 testing, navigated the USDA designation process, and built products that meet biobased content thresholds. Here is what we need from you to get those products in front of federal buyers -- and what we handle on our end.
What you provide (you have most of this already)
- Your USDA BioPreferred designation letter and ASTM D6866 test results by product line.
- Basic business credentials: entity details, authorized contacts, and distributor authorization.
- Product category and biobased content percentages -- information you already generated during the certification process.
What we handle on our end
- Procurement documentation that federal buyers and prime contractors may request with a quote or order.
- Product listing with correct BioPreferred category mapping so buyers can find your products by designated category.
- Ongoing compliance monitoring -- authorization renewals, category updates, and reporting data for federal purchasing requirements.
How this becomes additive revenue
- The federal channel is incremental to your existing commercial relationships -- your current distribution is unaffected.
- Federal sustainable purchasing rules can create demand for products with clear category and evidence support.
- Once listed, federal orders can be paired with documentation assembled from the evidence you provide during onboarding.
