SBA Proposes $19 Million Size Standard for Engineering Firms

SBA Proposes Larger Size Standard for Engineering Firms



The Small Business Administration (SBA) proposed Wednesday to increase the small business size standard for engineering firms from $4.5 to $19 million in average annual gross revenue. Firms with annual revenues below the standard are eligible for federal agency small business contracting opportunities.

SBA has asked ACEC for comments on the proposed standard by May 16. ACEC has formed a working group of Member Firms of all sizes to study the rule. Members who would like to participate in the working group should contact Mark Steiner at msteiner@acec.org.
