NASA opened its first Small Business Outreach Program at the New Hampshire Technical College in Nashua. The Center for Technology Commercialization, one of NASA's six Regional Technology Transfer Centers, signed an agreement to oversee the program, which was a pilot project to assist New England businesses competing for NASA contracts. The Program was to focus on small and disadvantaged businesses. (Black Media News, Apr 94)
March/April: NASA achieved its congressionally mandated small disadvantaged business (SDB) contracting goal one year early. It was to reach an 8 per-cent SDB goal by fiscal year 1994. Instead, in 1993, NASA awarded 8.5 per-cent of its contracting budget to SDBs, women-owned firms, and Historically Black Colleges and Universities. (Minority Business Entrepreneur, Mar/Apr 94)
