HUD Small Business Policy Statement


	Information by State Print version

It is the policy of the Department of Housing and Urban Development to ensure nondiscrimination in federal procurement opportunities for small businesses and especially those small businesses owned by the disadvantaged (SDB), women (WOSB), service disabled veterans (SDVOSB), and those located in historically Underutilized Business Zones (HUBZone), or part of the 8(a) Business Development Program (8(a)). It is HUD policy to take affirmative steps to ensure inclusion of these businesses in HUD contracting. The Department recognizes that these businesses are of vital importance to job growth and economic strength of the country and that they have faced historic exclusion and under utilization in federal procurement. A successful and strong business community is an integral component of the Department's overall mission of job creation, community empowerment, and economic revitalization.
