Some contracts are restricted further to economically disadvantaged women-owned small businesses (EDWOSBs).\n Women-owned small business concerns that do not participate in the program may continue to self-certify their status\, receive contract awards outside of the program.\n SBA continues to allow participation from businesses that utilize SBA-approved Third-Party Certifiers (TPCs) to obtain WOSB or EDWOSB certification provided that these firms submit their TPC certification and proof of citizenship at www.WOSB.Certify.sba.gov\n WOSB certified firms may continue to participate in the program if they meet the requirements set forth in 13 CFR 127 https://www.ecfr.gov/current/title-13/chapter-I/part-127 \n WOSB certification benefits only apply to federal contracting opportunities\, rather than those available in the private sector.\n\nAbout the Small Business Administration:\n\nSince 1953\, the SBA has worked to ignite change and spark action so small businesses can confidently start\, grow\, expand\, or recover. The Nevada District Office has a collective team of resources to help your business prosper.\n\n\n\nAll services are extended to the public on a non-discriminatory basis.
