Ohio Admin. Code 123:5-1-16doesn't specify a set-aside percentage, but it does establish a preference system for veteran-friendly businesses in state procurement. Certified veteran-friendly businesses are given preference in bidding and proposal evaluations, with specific procedures for applying these preferences, including price adjustments and point reductions for non-veteran bids. If a veteran-friendly business is identified as the most advantageous or lowest bid, they are prioritized for contract awards.
NaVOBA's mission is to create corporate contracting opportunities for America's Veteran's and Service-Disabled Veteran's Business Enterprises® (VBEs/SDVBEs) through certification, advocacy, outreach, recognition and education.
