SBA Properly Rejected Joint Venture Arrangement That Offered Little Benefit to 8(a) Participant; COFC No. 18-271C, CR/ZWS LLC v. United States and VMX International LLC

Protest challenging the SBA’s determination that a joint venture was not an eligible 8(a) small business is denied, where SBA was not precluded from revisiting its earlier decision approving the joint venture agreement and was not required to give the protester notice of the defects in an amendment to the JVA before reaching a decision.
