Open RFPs in Tennessee (20 live)
20 open federal opportunities name Tennessee as the place of performance, plus 3,465 nationwide opportunities open to Tennessee businesses. Counted live from SAM.gov, updated June 10, 2026.
Tennessee's federal market pairs nuclear science with military aviation. Oak Ridge, west of Knoxville, hosts Oak Ridge National Laboratory, the Y-12 National Security Complex, and a massive environmental-cleanup program, together one of the Department of Energy's largest procurement footprints, flowing through direct solicitations and the site contractors' supplier programs. Arnold Air Force Base near Tullahoma operates the nation's most advanced flight-simulation test facilities and buys engineering and test support. Fort Campbell, shared with Kentucky on the state line, drives services and construction demand in Clarksville, the Corps of Engineers Nashville District manages the Cumberland River system, Memphis hosts a defense-logistics and distribution cluster anchored by its transportation economy, and the VA runs hospitals in Memphis, Nashville, Murfreesboro, and Mountain Home.
The State of Tennessee posts its own solicitations through the Edison supplier portal, the procurement face of the state's ERP system, separate from SAM.gov. The live counts below are RFPhound's daily SAM.gov scan for Tennessee work plus the nationwide pool. Oak Ridge-adjacent technical, environmental, and security firms should register with the site contractors as well; the two pipelines together are the full market.
