About the VetHUB Program

VetHUB is Veteran Heroes United in Business. The program will focus on certification of service-disabled veterans (SDV) to facilitate their growth and development and increase HUB contracts and subcontracts with the state of Texas. For more information about VetHUB, visit the state website on VetHUB.

The System Offices VetHUB Program ensures the system’s good faith effort to include VetHUB businesses in its procurement efforts. This good faith effort involves evaluating and determining subcontracting opportunities, administering the mentor/protégé program, participating in marketing and outreach efforts to promote contracting and subcontracting opportunities in an effort to achieve VetHUB participation, and reporting VetHUB expenditures to the Texas State Comptroller in accordance with statute.

The System Offices VetHUB Program is responsible to:

  • Identify and champion relationship-building opportunities with VetHUBs to support the procurement needs of the System Offices
  • Host, sponsor, and attend forums, fairs, and events to establish and cultivate relationships with VetHUBs
  • Administer the System Offices’ Mentor/Protégé Program in accordance with statute
  • Provide training and guidance on the State of Texas’s VetHUB Program requirements to System Members and staff
  • Oversee the System Offices’ compliance to the State of Texas VetHUB Program

Where to Find Opportunities

Explore current contracting and subcontracting opportunities available through the Texas A&M University System and the State. Use the tabs below to find active bids, construction project opportunities, and more.

The Office of Facilities Planning & Construction (FP&C) regularly shares upcoming construction-related contracting opportunities on its webpage. Here, you’ll also find the Texas A&M System’s Capital Plans, Master Service Agreement lists, and other helpful resources.

AggieBid is the online bidding portal where suppliers can view current Invitations to Bid (ITB), Requests for Proposal (RFP), Requests for Qualifications (RFQ), and Requests for Information (RFI) posted by multiple universities and agencies within the Texas A&M University System. It is a centralized space to explore active opportunities and submit responses.

All System Offices solicitations estimated at $25,000 or more are also posted on the state’s centralized bidding site, called the Texas Smart Buy Electronic State Business Daily (ESBD). To find current opportunities from the System Offices, enter our Agency Number “710” and filter by “Posted” under status. This is a great way to view our active solicitations alongside other statewide opportunities.
