Improving federal and Department of Defense use of service-disabled veteran-owned businesses

Cox, Amy G. (author.). Moore, Nancy Y. 1947- (author.). Rand Corporation, (publisher.). Rand Corporation. National Security Research Division, (issuing body.).

Summary: The report investigates the barriers that service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses (SDVOSBs) may face when attempting to contract with the federal government and the Department of Defense. The government and DoD goals are to award 3 percent of prime-contract dollars to SDVOSBs but current contracting falls below that level. The authors assess the characteristics of service-disabled veterans that support successful business ownership and identify possible barriers to meeting the 3 percent goals.
