SBA Size Standards

SBA is hosting a series of two virtual public forums on size standards to update the public on the status of the ongoing second 5-year comprehensive review of size standards as mandated by the Small Business Jobs Act of 2010.  

We will consider public testimony on changes contained in the recently-published proposed rule titled Small Business Size Standards: Manufacturing and Industries With Employee-Based Size Standards in Other Sectors Except Wholesale Trade and Retail Trade. Testimony presented at these forums will become part of the administrative record for SBA’s consideration when developing the final rule.

For more information about the forums, see the notice published in the Federal Register.

The forums will be held via the Microsoft Teams platform on the following dates:

Thursday, 06/16/22: 1:00pm to 3:00pm ET – Register for the Thursday session

  • Participants must pre-register using the links above
