The General Services Administration the largest buyer of goods and services in the world predicts that 2014-2016 will be full of robust opportunities for startups and small businesses who sell products and services.

The survival rate for new businesses and particular for those selling to the federal government survive five more years or more and about one-third survive 10 years or more.
