To be eligible for award the SDVOSB must be considered small under the relevant NAICS code and must be registered and verified in the following websites: Veteran Small Business Certification (sba.gov)/. Companies must have the Certified Veteran Enterprise (CVE) seal on their registration to be considered for an award.
