Minority SDB 8(a) MBE Status
Federal legislation has created a group designated minority small disadvantaged business that is afforded exclusive contract preferences. Minority disadvantage are among poorest and most under-employed groups in America. U.S. Government has taken a number of steps to help promote self-sufficiency in this population. One of its most successful initiatives has been including these Minority Disadvantaged American groups in the Small Business Administration’s 8(a) program as “socially and economically disadvantaged”
Small Business Administration Small Classification
The Small Business Administration has established Small Classifications, for which prime contractors can subcontract to
|
- URimagination and receive small business and small disadvantaged business (SDB) credit for life of contract without consideration of prime contract’s NAICS code or size standard
- When one or more subcontractors are in the subcontract tier between the prime contractor and URimagination, the prime contractor can still count our subcontract revenue towards achieving the contract’s small business and SDB subcontracting goals.
