How does a concern maintain its WOSB or EDWOSB certification?

CFR · 2024-01-01 · US · Title 13

Any concern seeking to remain a certified WOSB or EDWOSB must undergo a program examination every three years. (a) SBA or a third-party certifier will conduct a program examination three years after the concern's initial WOSB or EDWOSB certification (whether by SBA or a third-party certifier) or three years after the date of the concern's last program examination, whichever date is later. (b) The concern must either request a program examination from SBA or notify SBA that it has requested a program examination from a third-party certifier no later than 30 days prior to its certification anniversary. Failure to do so will result in the concern being decertified.
