Does SBA keep lists of eligible small businesses or issue certificates for firms to qualify as small businesses?
SBA does not issue certificates or maintain lists establishing the eligibility of firms as small businesses. For Federal procurements, the firm self-certifies its small business status in Online Representations and Certifications Application when it submits its best and final offer, based on the size standard specified in the solicitation. However, SBA maintains lists of small disadvantaged businesses and HUBZone businesses.
