Protecting Small Business Competitions Act of 2025

The Protecting Small Business Competitions Act of 2025 requires federal agencies to reserve certain government contracts for small businesses. Specifically, for contracts, task orders, or delivery orders exceeding the simplified acquisition threshold, contracting officers must reserve the award for small businesses if they reasonably expect at least two responsible small business offers and can award at a fair market price. This rule directly affects federal procurement decisions and small business contractors competing for government work. It changes how agencies evaluate competition in purchasing goods and services above a set spending threshold.
