The number of bundled contracts awarded by federal agencies has reached a 10-year high, hurting small businesses according to a recent report by the Small Business Administration (SBA) and negatively impacting the small business industrial base.

In this session we will discuss the definition of bundling, how to identify bundling, and what actions you can take when you spot bundling actions. When an acquisition strategy could lead to a contract bundling, agencies must follow strict procedures.  Learn what those procedures are and what actions to take.
