Set-Asides for Small Business[1]
(a) The purpose of small business set-asides is to award certain acquisitions exclusively to small business concerns. A “set-aside for small business” is the reserving of an acquisition exclusively for participation by small business concerns. A small business set-aside may be open to all small businesses.
To ensure companies are qualified to receive Set-Asides, the SBA has oversight of set aside programs to ensure that the rules and regulations are being followed.
