The Idaho National Laboratory is committed to supporting the small business objectives of the U.S. Government and the Department of Energy (DOE) and recognizes that diversity in subcontracting provides a vital link to the local community, strengthens the economy, and represents best business practices. This commitment is communicated through the goals outlined in the Small Business Subcontracting plan for Fiscal Year (FY) 2008. Forty percent (40%) of the total dollars planned to be subcontracted from October 1, 2007 through September 30, 2008 will be subcontracted to small business.
The INL has established separate percentage goals for seven socioeconomic categories; Small Disadvantage Business, 8(a) Certified Small Business, HUBZone Small Business, Woman-Owned Small Business, Veteran-Owned Small Business, Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Business, and Native American Small Business.

Idaho Business Concerns Goal
In addition, to the socoioeconmic small business goals the INL will emphasize utilization of Idaho based businesses by establishing the Idaho Business Concerns goal. The Idaho Business Concerns Goal includes subcontracting to small and other than small businesses. The FY 2008 goal is a percentage of the total estimated procurement.
