Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business Concern (SDVOSBC) Program
The Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business Concern Procurement Program allows West Worldwide, LLC to participate in procuring agencies set-asides for exclusive competition among service-disabled veteran-owned small business concerns. In addition, agencies have the authority to make sole-source awards to service-disabled veteran-owned small business concerns if certain conditions are met. (Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) 13 C.F.R. § 125.8-125.10).
Small Business Administration Women Owned Small Business (WOSB) 8(m) Program
Depending on your requirements, you may wish to partner with West Worldwide, LLC through the WOSB set-aside. The 8(m) program was developed by the SBA to allow socially and economically disadvantaged firms with expert capabilities equal access to business opportunities. The SBA enters into contracts with federal procuring agencies as the prime contractor, subcontracting the actual performance of the work to 8(m) companies. The 8(m) procurement cycle is significantly faster than any other means of contracting. When using the 8(m) contracting method, a program manager may simply select a firm as a suggested source and request that the procurement be pursued under the 8(m) program. As a reminder, the anticipated award price of the contract currently must not exceed the $4 million threshold.
