Federal contracts always favor minority or women owner businesses.

I’ve worked with several contractors that put the business in their wifes name to get federal contracts.

True of state too. My DIL, a state lawyer has told me about this and how it is costing the state.

8A contracting is a huge scam.Usually the are engineering firms in name only and act as subcontractor to a bigger firm.It's merely a pass through vehicle for
a federal contract and usually can be written as a sole
source (no bid)provider.

An acquaintance was telling me about his budding business and stopped to correct and say that it was actually his wife's. It was clear she didn't know anything about the subject. It all makes sense now!
