Effective April 3, 2019, GSA is removing its SBA Mentor-Protégé Program regulations because of duplication with the SBA’s Government-wide Mentor-Protégé Program. The SBA’s program became effective on August 24, 2016 and has gained popularity as Agency Contracting Officers have become more familiar with the benefits of that program. If you would like more information on the background, requirements, and benefits of a Mentor-Protégé arrangement, please contact us to discuss. t 6;\lsdpri
