Public input deadline is 1 month from today: Proposed expansion of the "Rule of Two" to benefit small businesses The U.S. Small Business Administration is proposing an expansion of its "Rule of Two" policy, which requires government contracts to be set aside for small businesses when at least two qualified small firms are capable of performing the work. The new proposal aims to extend this rule to apply to orders off of multiple-award contracts, with certain exceptions. In addition, the SBA is calling for greater involvement from the SBA and agency Offices of Small and Disadvantaged Business Utilization (OSDBUs) in planning new multiple-award contracts. The SBA estimates the proposed changes could potentially funnel an additional $6 billion in contracts annually to small businesses. Small business owners and interested stakeholders are encouraged to provide feedback on the proposed rule by December 24, 2024. Federal Register: https://lnkd.in/eVyuPrbB
