Omaha, Nebraska – Obtaining 8(a) Business Development program certification from the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) is a big advantage for companies owned by socially and economically disadvantaged individuals, and the challenges of navigating the lengthy process can be lessened by the experienced consultants in the Nebraska Business Development Center (NBDC) Procurement Technical Assistance Center (PTAC) program.
“The difficulties inherent to the 8(a) certification process can be very frustrating for small business owners,” says Veronica Doga, PTAC program director. “After they submit an application, the SBA reviews and often sends it back with more questions about the business.”
“It’s not a linear process, and every time the SBA asks questions, the clock stops. When a process can take up to two years, PTAC consultants provide the advice and encouragement these business owners need to make it to the finish line.”
