15 U.S.C. § 637d: Subcontracting plan reports

Summary

The Small Business Administration must, within one year after January 2, 2013, update its electronic subcontracting reporting system so it can identify which entities failed to send required reports. By March 31 each year, the SBA must send a report to the House Committee on Small Business and the Senate Committee on Small Business and Entrepreneurship. Using available data, the report must list by agency (and, if possible, by goal or plan type) the percent of entities required to report under section 637(d)(6) that did and did not file, the percent of filers that met, exceeded, or missed their subcontracting goals, and the total amount by which those goals were exceeded or missed.
