3. Unification of the eligibility requirements for the VA program and the SBA program
All VA procurements must be set-aside from competition among SDVOSBs (or VOSBs) if
there is a reasonable expectation that two or more responsible SDVOSBs will submit an
offer and that award can be made at a fair and reasonable price.
This includes contracts procured for the benefit of the VA by another agency.

This is contrasted with the SBA’s SDVOSB program (under which all other federal
agencies award SDVOSB set-asides) which is a self-certification program. No advance
approval is required. A company need only certify that it is an SDVOSB when it submits
its offer on an SDVOSB set-aside contract. That certification is then subject to protest by
disappointed offerors.

- Make sure all of your ducks are in a row before filing the application because if the
application is denied you will have to wait 6 months before you can re-apply.

3. Unification of the eligibility requirements for the VA program and the SBA program
* On Oct. 1, 2018 news rules which unified the eligibility requirements for the V’s
SDVOSB program and the SBA’s SDVOSB program took effect.
* Prior to this new rule the VA’s program had slightly different requirements (most
significantly in the areas of control of the company and the level of effort that a service
disabled veteran had to dedicate to the running of the company). This led to the
possibility that a company could be eligible under one program and not the other. It
also led to a lot of confusion among contractors as to which program they were
qualified under.

3. Unification of the eligibility requirements for the VA program and the SBA program
Important changes to the eligibility requirements following the unification of the rules
(cont’d):
* VA verified SDVOSBs must inform VA of any new super majority voting requirements
* Requirement that SDV be the most highly compensated (was not in the SBA’s rules)
* DOD has a demonstrated commitment to contracting with SDVOSBs and has one of
the highest rates of contracting with SDVOSBs of any federal agency.
* DOD has conducted a number of OIG inquiries into SDVOSB contracting and the
controls in place to ensure integrity of the program
