The Small-Business Guide to Government Contracts: How to Comply with the Key Rules and Regulations . . . and Avoid Terminated Agreements, Fines, or Worse

Each year, the federal government awards billions of dollars in small-business contracts. The Small-Business Guide to Government Contracts puts a wealth of specialized legal counsel at readers’ fingertips, answering the most important compliance questions like:

• Is a small business really small?
• Who is eligible for HUBZone, 8(a), SDVO, or WOSB programs?
• What salaries and benefits must be offered?
• What ethical requirements must be followed?
• When does affiliation become a liability?

Small-business contracts are both the lifeblood of hundreds of thousands of companies and a quagmire of red tape. No one can afford to be lax with the rules or too harried to heed them. The Small-Business Guide to Government Contracts empowers contractors to avoid missteps, meet their compliance obligations—and keep the pipeline flowing.
