The Impact Of Contract Bundling On Small Business

This report discusses the increasingly common practice of contract bundling, which is accelerating the concentration of larger & fewer federal contracts into the hands of larger & fewer companies. As this happens, the small business share of federal dollars is stagnating well below established agency small business contracting goals. Small businesses, unable to compete for larger contracts, are leaving the federal marketplace in increasing numbers. The diminishing diversity of the federal industrial base that contract bundling is fueling will have long term & detrimental consequences to the government's ability to procure needed services & supplies at competitive prices.
