From before the blog: Size does matter

[Occasionally, I will resurrect something that I have found from the past and bring it to your attention.]

Cost for certifying as a small business as part of a GSA schedule proposal: $0
Cost for competitor to protest size certification: $.39
Cost for misrepresenting a large company as a small one: NOT Priceless- One million dollars!

Seriously, folks (I can't believe I said that)... There is a current controversy with large companies buying small companies and reaping small business contracting preferences. In fact, this fall, the Small Business Administration came up with new regulations to combat this issue.

Is that enough? Is that too much?
