Streamlining Small Business Contracts Act of 2026

This bill proposes to amend the Small Business Act by increasing the dollar threshold for certain sole source contracts awarded to small business concerns. Specifically, it raises the maximum value for sole source contracts to $10,000,000 across multiple federal contracting programs. The affected programs include those for 8(a) businesses , Women-Owned Small Businesses (WOSB) , Historically Underutilized Business Zone (HUBZone) businesses , and Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSB) . By standardizing and increasing this threshold, the legislation aims to streamline the contracting process and enhance opportunities for these specific categories of small businesses to secure federal contracts without full and open competition.
