Service-Disabled Veteran Opportunities in Small Business Act

This bill requires the Small Business Administration (SBA) to provide employees at any federal agency that has not met the goal of awarding at least 3% of its prime contracts and subcontracts to small businesses owned by service-disabled veterans with training to increase the number of such contracts awarded.

The SBA must report for each fiscal year a list of each agency that did not meet the contracting goal and the number of trainings the SBA provided.
