Over 40 different Federal agencies assist
or regulate businesses. With so many sources of information,
finding what you want can be complicated and time-consuming.
Business.gov is one of the E-Government initiatives in the
President's Management Agenda. It was developed to provide
better customer service for small businesses interacting with
the Federal Government.
Business.gov is a collaborative effort managed
by the U.S. Small Business Administration. Partner executive
departments include Department of Commerce (DOC), Department
of Energy (DOE), Department of Health and Human Services (HHS),
Department of Homeland Security (DHS), Department of the Interior
(DOI), Department of Justice (DOJ), Department of Labor (DOL),
and Department of Transportation (DOT). We also partner with
the following independent agencies and government corporations:
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), General Services Administration
(GSA), and Social Security Administration (SSA).
SBA and their partner agencies share the
belief that government can be more customer-focused and user-friendly
in helping U.S. small businesses gain access to information
and services from the government. Business.gov provides a
one-stop, common access point for Federal Government services
and information needed to assist with starting, running, and
growing a business.
Serving businesses on their terms - providing
information at the right time and in the right format - is
our goal.
