What does SDVOSB stand for?

• A. Service Disabled Veteran Owned Small Business
• B. Small Disadvantaged Veteran Owned Small Business
• C. Service Disabled Veteran Operational Standards
• D. Senior Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business

Answer: (A)

SDVOSB stands for Service Disabled Veteran Owned Small Business. This designation flags a small business in which one or more service-connected disabled veterans own and control at least 51% of the company, and the business meets SBA size standards. The disability must be connected to military service, as recognized by the VA or DoD, and this status provides access to specific federal contracting opportunities and preferences. The other options don’t fit because they alter the meaning (for example, “Small Disadvantaged” implies a different program) or refer to unrelated concepts.
