The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), Office of Small and Disadvantaged Business Utilization (OSDBU) mission is to enable Veterans to gain access to economic opportunities by leveraging the federal procurement system and expanding participation of procurement-ready small businesses. The VA OSDBU offers different program areas of services and support to assist you with your small business objectives. See below for some of the areas that VOSBs/SDVOSBs could benefit from:
Obtaining verification through the Vets First Verification Program, managed by Center for Verification and Evaluation (CVE), extends eligibility for set-asides and sole source contracts to SDVOSBs and VOSBs.
VA OSDBU gathers market research, oversees VA subcontracting, and provides overall direction on small business program policies and procedures.
The Direct Access Program (DAP) offers SDVOSBs, VOSBs, and other small businesses unique opportunities to develop partnerships, maximize networking, and secure connections at nationwide procurement events.
Strategic Outreach and Communications
Strategic Outreach and Communications (SOC) offers awareness, education, and training to small businesses interested in doing business with theVA.
