What is the Small Business Reserve Program?
A law was passed October 1, 2004 establishing the Small Business Reserve Program, and it requires that twenty-four designated state agencies structure their procurement processes so that at least 10 percent of their total procurement dollars are spent with qualified small businesses. An unofficial copy of the legislation is available on the Maryland General Assembly website at http://mlis.state.md.us .
