Micc Accepts Service-disabled Veteran-owned Small Business (sdvosb) Awards

摘要

Bryon Young, Executive Director, U.S. Army Mission and Installation Contracting Command (MICC) and Alice Williams-Gray, Associate Director, Office of Small Business Programs, accepted 25 awards from the Center for Veterans Enterprise (CVE). The awards, presented at the 4th Annual National Veteran Small Business Conference and Exposition, Las Vegas, NV, on July 28, 2008, were for significant contributions and dedication to expanding prime contract opportunities for service-disabled veterans. Young had challenged the contracting officers and small business advisors to exceed the congressionally mandated 3-percent SDVOSB goal for FY07. His focused support to the warfighter led to contract awards of more than $416 million for SDVOSBs - the highest dollar amount for this category in Army history. MICC's collective efforts and focus on the small business program resulted in an unparalleled $1.1 billion increase in small business prime contract awards.
