The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) is amending its adjudication procedures for service-disabled Veteran-owned small businesses (SDVOSBs) and Veteran-owned small businesses (VOSBs) status protests, to provide that VA's Director, Center for Veterans Enterprise (CVE), shall initially adjudicate SDVOSB and VOSB status protests and to provide that protested businesses, if they are denied status, may appeal to VA's Executive Director, Office of Small and Disadvantaged Business Utilization (OSDBU). Additionally, VA amends the title of CVE from the Center for Veterans Enterprise to the Center for Verification and Evaluation to more appropriately represent the function of this office.
