LW Business Innovations Launches the GovCon Starter Kit

Step-by-step guide helps women-owned, minority-owned, and immigrant-led small businesses get set up and positioned to win government contracts

United States, 21st Apr 2026 --LW Business Innovations LLC, a DMV-based business consulting and services firm, today announced the launch of the GovCon Starter Kit, a two-part resource for small business owners who want to break into government contracting. The Kit helps women-owned businesses, minority-owned businesses, and immigrant-led small businesses get set up and positioned to win government contracts.

"Government contracts can be a reliable way to build a small business," explained Lucy Were, founder and CEO of LW Business Innovations. "Getting the U.S. government as a client is not difficult if you know how. However, if you are not familiar with the way government procurement works, the process can be a bewildering maze of paperwork, acronyms, and legalese. This is the problem we are solving with our GovCon Starter Kit. DMV entrepreneurs and immigrant entrepreneurs will find the Kit of particular value."

The Kit, which includes a free guide titled So You Want Government Contracts?" and a $97, 24-page paid guide, "GovCon Starter Guide, is designed for service-based small business owners. For instance, people who own cleaning, catering, consulting, transportation, and photography firms can learn from the Kit how to add the U.S. government as a client. It covers LLC setup, SAM.gov registration, NAICS codes, capability statements, certifications (WOSB, MBE, 8a, HUBZone), subcontracting, and tools.

Lucy is a Kenyan-born entrepreneur who was raised in Germany and immigrated to the U.S. at 23. She has lived in the DC/Maryland/Virginia area for nearly 20 years. Having run multiple businesses in the DC area, Lucy noticed government contracting everywhere around her. A close friend who had been a government contractor for 30 years maintained steady income through recessions, COVID, and shutdowns.

When Lucy realized that government contracting meant doing business with the government--not working for it--she dove into research, got registered on SAM.gov, and began pursuing her WOSB certification. She is actively bidding on contracts. She built the GovCon Starter Kit because the resource she needed didnt exist, i.e., a plain-language guide, structured, and written for outsiders to the system.

Lucy moved to the U.S. because she truly believed America gave entrepreneurs the best opportunities. "There really is an American dream for immigrants, and I'm living it," Lucy added. "I want others to have the same success that I've been enjoying. That's been one of the motivations behind creating the Kit."
