SBA 8(a) Certification Support
Our SBA 8(a) certification consultants and government contract attorneys assist minority-owned businesses with the complex nuances involved with 8(a) certification and help businesses develop a solid 8(a) package by focusing on what the SBA looks for. As SBA consultants and government contract attorneys, we deal firsthand with the legal and substantive issues of the application process. Besides offering 8(a) certification services, we litigate against the SBA when it makes mistakes. There are many 8(a) consulting firms across the US. However, when the SBA makes an unlawful decision or has concerns about your application, the same consulting firms will refer you to a lawyer because they don’t know the legal issues. Our 8(a) certification lawyers not only understand the law, but we have also dealt with the complex issues during the application stages.
The 8(a) Business Development Program is a business assistance program for small, disadvantaged businesses. The 8(a) Program offers a broad scope of assistance to firms that are owned and controlled at least 51% by socially economically disadvantaged individuals. Having been the owner of a successful small, disadvantaged business, SLS wants to help the businesses that are so important to our economy. SLS can help guide companies through the certification process which can feel daunting and overwhelming to a small business. However, small business owners that meet the qualifications enjoy significant benefits to grow their business. If you are a small business owner meeting the following qualifications, SLS partners have the personal experience and expertise to guide you through the qualification process and offer their expertise in federal and state award management when your company gets the award.
