Set-Aside Alert WOSB investigation:

“SBA is very concerned”

Set-Aside Alert found dozens of EDWOSB set-aside contracts apparently wrongly awarded to WOSBs; protests may increase

A pattern of errors in official data for women-owned federal contractors suggests that dozens of U.S. government contracts totaling tens of millions of dollars may have been awarded wrongly to ineligible firms, Set-Aside Alert’s exclusive investigation has found.

Set-Aside Alert previously reported on its research that led to discovery of widespread errors in official data for federal set-aside contracts for Women-Owned Small businesses (WOSBs) and Economically-Disadvantaged WOSBs (see April 17, 2015 issue).

The errors primarily consisted of multiple agencies reporting dozens of large set-aside contracts in industry NAICS codes designated solely for EDWOSBs as having been awarded to WOSBs.
