Federal Mentor-Protégé Programs

Participating in a federal mentor-protégé program can be one of the best ways for a small business to learn new skills and improve its competitive standing for government contracts. Mentors may benefit, too, by gaining socioeconomic and small business credit with procuring agencies and (in the case of the SBA mentor-protégé program), obtaining the ability to compete–together with a small business–as a joint venture on small business and 8(a) set-aside contracts.

​

If you are thinking about participating in a federal mentor-protégé program, Koprince McCall Pottroff LLC can help make sure you do it right.

 

Mentor-Protégé Agreements

Every federal mentor-protégé program requires the prospective mentor and protégé to execute a formal mentor-protégé agreement, setting forth the types of assistance the mentor will provide, benchmarks to ensure that assistance is provided, and so on.  The SBA mentor-protégé program, thanks in part to updated 8(a) regulations adopted in 2011, is particularly strict in the types of documentation it requires.
