Service Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business

New legislation has authorized a unique “Veterans First” approach specific to Veterans Administration contracting. This approach changes the priorities for contracting preferences within the Veterans Administration, placing SDVOSBs and VOSBs first and second, respectively, in satisfying VA’s acquisition requirements. Certain conditions must be met. All VOSBs, including SDVOSBs, must register in the VetBiz.gov Vendor Information Pages (VIP) database.

On May 21, 2009, Marathon Systems received verification from the Center for Veterans Enterprise (CVE); validating our status as a verified Service Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business and added us to the Veterans business database at www.VetBiz.gov. We are now eligible to participate in Veterans First Contracting Program opportunities with the Veteran Administration.
