30% Government Contracting Requirement? Here's Why You're Losing Bids Without Even Knowing It
Manage episode 499831164 series 3558822
In today’s episode of The Daily Windup, we’re talking with Brian Samvich of Anchin, a specialist in regulatory compliance and investigations, and someone deeply embedded in the real-world mechanics of government contracting. Brian breaks down how federal and state construction projects are now coming with strict participation goals—often 30%, 33%, or even 36%—for minority-owned, women-owned, veteran-owned, and HUBZone businesses. And it’s not just a suggestion—it’s being written directly into bonds and compliance terms.
Brian shares how his team helps both large builders and government agencies meet these aggressive diversity and small business goals, and how firms can get ahead by certifying, showing up early, and building meaningful partnerships. If you’re a MWBE, SDVOSB, or small business owner looking to land major public contracts, this episode is a must. You’ll also learn about new changes like New York’s Article 15-A, which lets certified firms bid up to 10% higher than competitors and still win. Compliance isn’t just paperwork—it’s a gateway to millions in opportunity. Tune in and make sure you’re not missing out.
