Teaming / JV / Mentor-Protégé

Formal ways to combine two firms' credentials on a single bid.

What it means

Teaming, joint ventures (JV), and the SBA Mentor-Protégé program are formal structures that let firms combine credentials on a bid.

For a new company, teaming with an experienced partner lets you borrow their past performance and capacity to pursue work you could not win alone. Mentor-Protégé arrangements even allow a small firm and its larger mentor to JV without affecting the small firm's size status.
