Federal agencies would get training to help veteran-owned businesses win more contracts.
This bill would require federal agencies to get training and guidance aimed at increasing contracts for small businesses owned by service-disabled veterans. Agencies that do not meet their contracting goals would be listed in an annual report to Congress. This aims to create more opportunities for veteran entrepreneurs.
Today, there are no specific requirements for the Small Business Administration to train federal agencies or issue guidance on increasing contracts for small businesses owned by service-disabled veterans. This bill would change that by requiring the SBA to provide training and guidance to agencies that have not met their goals. It would also require annual reports to Congress on agency performance and training efforts.
