The Office of Small Business Programs (OSBP) administers the
Department of Labor's responsibility to ensure
procurement opportunities for small
businesses, small disadvantaged businesses, women-owned small businesses,
HUBZone businesses, and businesses owned by service-disabled veterans. OSBP
serves as the Department's Ombudsman for small businesses under the
Small Business Regulatory Enforcement
Fairness Act (SBREFA). The resource
center provides information regarding rules and regulations that the
Department administers.
As part of the Department's goal to raise awareness of the
opportunities and services available to the small business community, OSBP is
committed to expanding its outreach efforts across the United States. OSBP also
manages the minority colleges and universities program in order to support the
participation of Historically Black Colleges and Universities, Hispanic Serving
Institutions, Tribal Colleges and Universities, and Asian Americans and Pacific
Islanders within the Department's programs and plans.

Business Programs at 202-693-6460.
