Small Business Assistance Programs

Sandy Michael McDonaldDirector

Office of Economic and Small Business Development

17

Continuing the Commitment

• The small business program represents the Board’s commitment to small business development.

• Following legal challenges from the Associated General Contractors, the Construction Association of Florida, Underground Contractors Association and others, the Board suspended its M/WBE program in 2007 and created the CBE program.

• The SBE program has been in place since 2004 and was a recommendation of the 2001 disparity study.

• While the current program is race-neutral and more focused on economic development, it shares history with the race-conscious program; however, there are important differences.

Small Business Assistance Programs, continued

18

Where we’ve been.2010 Disparity Study

• Broward County last authorized a study to examine the

past and current status of M/WBEs in June 2008. Previous

studies were issued in 1991 and 2001.

• Most recent study, received in 2010, made a variety of

recommendations in support of small businesses.

• On-going data collection and monitoring by Staff.

Growing Business Beyond Broward…

19

OESBD is submitting the changes to the Business Opportunity

Act of 2012 (BOA) to encourage greater consistency in

processes and clarity in requirements under the Broward

County Small Business Development Program.

These items represent the outcome of staff and Small Business

Development Advisory Board discussions on how to improve

and grow the County’s small business offerings.

20

Growing Business Beyond Broward…

• New Business Development Training Program

o Includes on-site training on how to complete local and federal certification applications

o Exploring on-demand online video trainings/webinars

• Kauffman New Venture Course for aspiring and early stage entrepreneurs

• Social media marketing to increase awareness of OESBD programs and services using a market segmentation strategy

21

Growing Business Beyond Broward:

Mentor Protégé

• 93% of small and medium sized businesses acknowledge that mentoring can help them to succeed*

• For every 9 out of 10 mentored business owners, a full-time job was created; 77% business owners created or retained jobs (51% retained; 26% added)**

• 52% of small business owners go to individual mentors for advice***

• 70% of small businesses that receive mentoring survive more than five years – DOUBLE the survival rate of non-mentored businesses****

22

Mission

To promote the success of local / disadvantaged business participation programs by supporting the development of a capable and ready base of certified

CBEs, SBEs, DBEs and ACDBEs in collaboration with community resources.

PROGRAM FEATURES

• Scheduled coaching meetings between protégé principals and mentor

executives.

• Technical assistance via training sessions, seminars and workshops.

• Site visits and facility tours to explore new technologies.

• Strategic planning and goal-setting assistance.

• Shadowing opportunities for small business staff members with their

corporate counterparts.

• Access to professional business documentation, forms and schedules.

• Ongoing support in dealing with questions, concerns and business

obstacles.

Small Business Program Recommendations

• Give prime contractors more time to develop and solidify their

certified subcontracting teams. Obtain a commitment to the

program from responding vendors at bid time, and set the

subcontracting team at the time of recommendation for

award.

• Match SBE sheltered market requirements with those of the

open-market.

23


• Modify net worth eligibility standard to exclude retirement

income (consistent with Federal guidelines).

• Establish a flat goal for the County based on actual

attainment of CBE participation, either overall or by nature of

work. Discontinue project level goal setting

Permit formal waiver of the goal on a case-by-case basis

24


• In the sheltered market, base acceptable prices on a

preference credit above the County’s estimate. This will keep

costs reasonable and encourage competition, while

supporting Broward’s small businesses.

• Set size standards for certification based on industry.

• Establish formal mentor-protégé program.
