SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The draft 

Small Business Administration 

FY2014–2018 Strategic Plan is provided 

for public input as part of the strategic 

planning process under the Government 

Performance and Results Modernization 

Act of 2010 (GPRA–MA) (Pub. L. 111– 

352) to ensure that Agency stakeholders 

are given an opportunity to comment on 

this plan. 

This Strategic Plan provides a 

framework that will strengthen, 

streamline, and simplify SBA’s 

programs while leveraging partnerships 

across the government and private 

sector to maximize the tools small 

business owners and entrepreneurs 

need to strengthen our economy, drive 

American innovation, and increase our 

global competitiveness. The SBA will 

have three overarching goals for the next 

five years: (1) Grow businesses and 

create jobs; (2) Serve as the voice for 

small business; and, (3) Build an 

Agency that meets the needs of today’s 

and tomorrow’s small businesses. Each 

goal contains objectives which are 

directly tied to performance both at the 

individual level and Agency-wide. 

The FY2014–2018 Strategic Plan 

contains only slight modifications to the 

existing FY2011–2016 Strategic Plan. 

This draft document chiefly refines the 

language of existing strategic objectives 

and strategies while adding two new 

strategic objectives concerning exports 

and supply chains, respectively. The 

text of the draft Strategic Plan FY2014– 

2018 is available through the SBA’s Web 

site at http://www.sba.gov/about-sba/
