Small Business Paperwork Relief Act
Requirement: All federal public websites* must comply with Small Business Paperwork Relief Act of 2002, which requires organizations to designate a single point of contact for small businesses, and to post the contact information on the organization's website.
Examples:
- Department of Commerce has an Office of Small and Disadvantaged Business Utilization
- HUD has an Office of Small and Disadvantaged Business Utilization
- EPA has a small business gateway and a Small Business Ombudsman Hotline
* These requirements apply to executive departments and agencies and their public websites. Check the specific law to see if it also applies to judicial or legislative agencies or to intranets.
