SBA OIG: Agencies Are Overstating Small Disadvantaged Business and HUBZone Goaling Credit by Including Contracts Performed by Ineligible Firms 

This report presents the results of our evaluation of select Section 8(a) Business Development Program and Historically Underutilized Business Zones (HUBZone) contract awards. SMA OIG identified over $400 million in contract actions that were awarded to ineligible firms, which may have contributed to the overstatement of small business goaling dollars for the Small Disadvantaged Business and the HUBZone Business preference programs in FY 2013.
