Book excerpt: For several decades the Federal Government has sought to aid and assist small businesses. These efforts have included congressional establishment of government-wide statutory goals for the Federal Government to purchase at least 23 percent of all its goods and services from small businesses. Because the Department of Defense (DoD) purchases about two-thirds of all goods and services the Federal Government buys, its purchasing practices greatly affect the success of federal procurement policy favoring small businesses. The DoD has had mixed success in meeting the procurement goal. Given the importance of DoD purchases to government-wide small-business procurement efforts, Congress asked the DoD Office of Small Business Programs for an assessment of impediments to small-business owners in contracting or subcontracting with the department. The DoD in turn authorized RAND to undertake this study in February 2008, and the study was completed in May 2008. As requested, the report includes, among other topics, analyses of available data on the following: (1) small-business size thresholds and how these affect the ability of a firm to work for the DoD, (2) contract bundling, (3) the distribution of small-business subcontracts between professional services and research and development, (4) transitioning Small Business Innovation Research programs to procurement, (5) the effects of the DoD Vendor Pay system on small business, (6) the effects of the Mentor-Protege Program, and (7) impediments to the success of businesses that graduate from small-business programs or seek to become larger businesses.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Impediments may exist that hamper small-business contracting opportunities. Among the issues examined in the report are federal goals for small business purchases, the unique purchase needs of the Department of Defense, and how they affect opportunities for small businesses. The study also examines contract "bundling," subcontracting in professional services and research and development, opportunities in the Small Business Innovation Research and the Mentor-Protege Programs, electronic payment systems, and whether firms "graduate" from the programs or increase in size from "small" to larger businesses as a result of various small-business preferences, including those for procurement.

This book was released on 2017-07-28 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: " Since 1990, DOD has been conducting a congressionally directed test program related to how contractors report their subcontracting activities. The purpose of the program is to test whether using comprehensive subcontracting plans that cover multiple contracts across contractor plants, divisions, or entire companies can yield administrative cost savings and enhance small business subcontracting opportunities. Despite the 25-year existence of the program, little is publicly known about its effectiveness. The National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2015 included a provision for GAO to report on the results of the program. This report addresses the extent to which the program (1) reduces administrative costs, and (2) enhances subcontracting opportunities for small businesses. GAO analyzed prior DOD reviews and data on estimates of administrative costs savings; reviewed program participants' performance for enhancing small business subcontracting opportunities for fiscal years 2006 through 2013; and interviewed officials from DOD, program participants, and small business advocacy groups.

This book was released on 1983 with total page 5 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper discusses steps taken by the Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) to strengthen small business participation in DoD extramural R & D, indicates a need for explicit attention to information transfer requirements by R & D contract administrators and concludes with a suggestion to the DoD contract administration community. Many factors impede small business efforts to do R & D business with the federal government. These run the gamut from federal procurement policies, regulations, and procedures; beliefs, biases, and practices of federal R & D people and their management systems; and the formidable advantages of bigness in the federal marketplace. Information transfer issues exacerbate the impacts of all the above and further reduce small business capabilities to compete for and to perform federal agency-- particularly DoD--R & D projects. The studies and testimony leading to the Small Business Innovation Development Act of 1982 indicated a need for change in federal agency approaches to R & D contracting. DTIC's approach has been to mitigate the impacts of information transfer barriers on small R & D firm efforts to do business with DoD. (Author).
