Definition
SDVOSBs are certified small businesses at least 51% owned and controlled by one or more veterans with a service-connected disability, eligible for dedicated set-asides.
Why it matters
VA applies a statutory preference giving verified SDVOSBs first priority on many procurements.
Example
A VA construction project is set aside for SDVOSB competition.
