Abstract: The Office of Small and Disadvantaged Business Utilization (OSDBU) Center for Verification and Evaluation (CVE) is required to measure the effectiveness and the processes taking place during the site inspections that are part of the Verification Programs. The site inspections are conducted by a third party. The purpose of the site inspections is to confirm whether the applicants are eligible to participate in the Verification Program according to 38 CFR § 74, specifically to determine if the Veteran applicant is the one who controls the small business concern. A risk analysis is conducted to determine which applicants should be site inspected.
