Rec. 1.b: The DoD OIG recommended that the DoD Office of Small Business Programs Director conduct a review, in coordination with the Military Departments and Defense agencies, of all 16 contractors in our sample that received DoD Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business contracts that we determined to be ineligible Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses to determine if they meet the eligibility requirements. Based on the review, the Director should take action, as appropriate, against any contractors found to have misrepresented their Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business status to the DoD to obtain set-aside and sole-source contracts by coordinating with the applicable contracting officer to protest, through the Small Business Administration, any contractors that appear to be ineligible.
