The Veterans’ Benefits
Act of 2003 (Public Law 108-183) was enacted on December 16, 2003, amending the
Small Business Act (15 U.S.C. 631 et. seq.) to establish a procurement program
for Small Business Concerns owned and Controlled by service-disabled
veterans. On May 5, 2004, the Small
Business Administration published implementation guidance providing the key
linkage to transform the vision of Public Law 108-183 into reality.
President George W. Bush
signed an Executive Order on October 29,
2004, providing opportunities for Service Disabled Veteran Businesses to
increase their federal contracting and subcontracting opportunities. The objective of the Executive Order is to
assure Federal Agencies are proactive in the administration of the law by
developing strategies to implement the policy and ensuring agency strategies
are available for public consumption.
