GovContractPros has learned that the U.S. Small Business Administration recently issued proposed changes to the #HUBZone Program aimed at clarifying comprehensive changes made to the program in 2019. The proposed rule would also make several changes to SBA’s size and 8(a) Business Development (BD) regulations, as well as some technical changes to the Women-Owned Small Business (#WOSB) and Veteran Small Business Certification (#SDVOSB) programs. In this post, GCP offers a summary of some of these proposed changes. In our view, the proposed regulations are a mixed bag; some offer some additional flexibility to federal contractors and in other instances, potentially impose significant costs on federal contractors to maintain eligibility for these programs. Read the full report here.

Congratulations to Core Interface Corporation on its recent admission to the Small Business Administration’s 8(a) Business Development Program! As an 8(a) Participant, Core Interface is eligible to receive federal contracting preferences including sole source awards from federal agencies, which benefit from the streamlined acquisition procedures and reduced acquisition planning risks. Federal agencies are also committed to contracting with 8(a) Participants for 5% of their contracting dollars. Founded in 2014, and located in the heart of Washington, DC, Core Interface is comprised of brilliant software developers, systems engineers and administrators who provide the highest-level IT services to their clients. For GCP, Glenn Ronk provided advice and assistance with the 8(a) application. We look forward to serving Core Interface and wish our client many successes in the federal marketplace during Core Interface’s nine years as an 8(a) Participant.

Many of our clients have already sought advice regarding the U.S. Small Business Administration's release of its Tribal Consultation announcement published to the Federal Register. That notice not only provided for a schedule of Tribal Consultations, but also included anticipatory rulemaking regarding Mentor-Protégé Program participants’ ability to perform GWACs beyond five years. To be clear, these comments by SBA have yet to make the rulemaking phase as required under the APA. However, GovContractPros, LLC is seeking to build a broad coalition of both protégés and mentors to help SBA understand the impact of these rule changes if such changes are made. We anticipate coalition members will benefit from clear and actionable guidance for any rule changes, assistance with contracting officer inquiries for current GWACs, and the opportunity to influence small business policy on future GWACs. If you would like to attend SBA's Ombudsman hearing, it is Thursday, September 12, 2024, 9:00am EDT, Washington, D.C. Register to attend at the link below. If you are interested in learning more about being a part of the coalition, please contact Jake Neilson at team@govcontractpros.com. https://lnkd.in/eMSKmZU4
