It has been clear for at least 50 years the disadvantages that small businesses face in competing for U.S. government contracts. The Small Business Act of 1953 created the Small Business Administration (SBA), an independent agency in the executive branch that counsels and assists specific types of small businesses including firms owned by minorities and other socially and economically disadvantaged individuals and firms owned by women. Women-owned small businesses, however, are underrepresented or substantially underrepresented in some industries. In 2002, the SBA Office of Federal Contract Assistance for Women Business Owners (CAWBO) organized a draft study containing a preliminary set of approximations of the representation of women-owned small businesses in federal prime contracts over $25,000 by industry. Because of the past legal challenges to race- and gender-conscious contracting programs at the federal and local levels, the SBA asked the Committee on National Statistics of the National Academies to conduct an independent review of relevant data and estimation methods prior to finalizing the CAWBO study. The Steering Committee on Women-Owned Small Businesses in Federal Contracting was created and charged with holding a workshop to discuss topics including the accuracy of data and methods to estimate the use of women-owned small businesses in federal contracting and the definition of "underrepresentation" and "substantial underrepresentation" in designating industries for which preferential contracting programs might be warranted. Analyzing Information on Women-Owned Small Businesses in Federal Contracting presents the committee's report as well as the recommendations that committees have made.

This paper garners information crucial to understanding business growth for new entrants and small businesses who contract with the federal government by utilizing publicly available contracting data from the Federal Procurement Data System (FPDS) to track new entrants from 2001-2016. This information is then used to evaluate entrances, exits, and status changes among federal vendors with the purpose of comparing challenges faced by small businesses with those of larger ones. Measuring market trends over time and in multiple sectors shows how the challenges facing small businesses, such as market barriers to entry and imperfect competition, keep them from growing. The final results compare the survival rates between small and non-small new entrants contracting with the federal government and analyze the graduation rates for those small new entrants who grew in size during the observation period and survived after ten years. The study finds that around 40 percent of new entrants exit the market for federal contracts after three years, around 50-60 percent after five years, and only about one-fifth of new entrants remain in the federal contracting arena in the final year of observation. Across the six samples studied, thegraduation rates of small businesses consistently decrease.

Congress has directed that 23 percent of direct federal purchases come from small businesses. As the largest purchaser in the federal government, the Department of Defense (DoD) is key to achieving this policy objective. The impetus for this research was to suggest industries that DoD could target for outreach to small firms. This briefing compares DoD procurement from small businesses with non-DoD federal procurement from small businesses, and it documents the prevalence of small businesses in industries DoD relies upon. The analysis suggests industries for possible outreach efforts and concludes that it is more difficult for DoD to reach the procurement goal than for the rest of the federal government because of the nature of the goods it buys, such as aircraft and large weapon systems. The authors of the briefing used the Federal Procurement Data System to study government spending and the 1997 Economic Census to analyze small firms in the economy.

Impediments may exist that hamper small-business contracting opportunities. Among the issues examined in the report are federal goals for small business purchases, the unique purchase needs of the Department of Defense, and how they affect opportunities for small businesses. The study also examines contract "bundling," subcontracting in professional services and research and development, opportunities in the Small Business Innovation Research and the Mentor-Protege Programs, electronic payment systems, and whether firms "graduate" from the programs or increase in size from "small" to larger businesses as a result of various small-business preferences, including those for procurement.

For several decades the Federal Government has sought to aid and assist small businesses. These efforts have included congressional establishment of government-wide statutory goals for the Federal Government to purchase at least 23 percent of all its goods and services from small businesses. Because the Department of Defense (DoD) purchases about two-thirds of all goods and services the Federal Government buys, its purchasing practices greatly affect the success of federal procurement policy favoring small businesses. The DoD has had mixed success in meeting the procurement goal. Given the importance of DoD purchases to government-wide small-business procurement efforts, Congress asked the DoD Office of Small Business Programs for an assessment of impediments to small-business owners in contracting or subcontracting with the department. The DoD in turn authorized RAND to undertake this study in February 2008, and the study was completed in May 2008. As requested, the report includes, among other topics, analyses of available data on the following: (1) small-business size thresholds and how these affect the ability of a firm to work for the DoD, (2) contract bundling, (3) the distribution of small-business subcontracts between professional services and research and development, (4) transitioning Small Business Innovation Research programs to procurement, (5) the effects of the DoD Vendor Pay system on small business, (6) the effects of the Mentor-Protege Program, and (7) impediments to the success of businesses that graduate from small-business programs or seek to become larger businesses.
