Abstract

This final rule makes several changes to the Small Business Administration (SBA or Agency) Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB) Federal Contract Program regulations, including adding definitions that are not currently included in the regulations and conforming the regulations to current statutes that have not yet been integrated. The rule also adopts similar language to that used in SBA's other government contracting program regulations regarding requirements for the qualifying individual's control of an applicant concern and limits on outside employment and makes changes to the process by which an application for certification is reviewed by SBA in order to implement a statutory amendment from the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2022 regarding the effects of a status determination on a small business concern.
