    The Department of Defense (DoD), General Services Administration (GSA), and National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) have issued a final rule that changes how small businesses must report their size and socioeconomic status when bidding for government contracts. This rule aligns with the changes made by the Small Business Administration and requires businesses to confirm their status for orders under certain contracts. The updated regulation aims to ensure that orders set aside for small businesses actually go to qualified small businesses, even if their business status changes during the lifecycle of the contract. These changes are effective from January 17, 2025, and include specific conditions under which businesses must update their size and status information.

    Simple Explanation

    The government has made a new rule to make sure that small businesses getting special contracts are truly small by asking them to double-check and confirm their size when they say they are small or special. This means they need to tell the truth about being small at certain times to keep things fair, starting January 17, 2025.
