In this bullet point, Olivia Lynch, Amy O’Sullivan, Michael Samuels, and Zachary Schroeder address the SBA Office of Hearings and Appeals’ (OHA) recent decision in DSC-EMI Maintenance Solutions, LLC, SBA No. SIZ-6096. In the decision, OHA affirmed a size determination holding that a joint venture formed pursuant to SBA’s Mentor-Protégé Program was other-than-small because the joint venture agreement failed to contain all provisions required by the SBA’s joint venture regulation. As a result, the joint venture was ineligible for the exemption from affiliation under SBA’s joint venture affiliation rule.
