Title: CVE Site Inspection. 

OMB Control Number: 2900—NEW. 

Type of Review: New collection. 

Abstract: OSDBU and CVE protect the 

integrity and validity of VA’s Veterans 

First Contracting Program by conducting 

a Risk Mitigation Program. This program 

helps to ensure that only eligible firms

Federal Regulation (CFR) Part 74 are

Veteran Owned Small Business 

(SDVOSB) and Veteran Owned Small 

Business (VOSB) participating of this 

program are either randomly selected 

for Post-verification Site Visit Audits or 

based upon risk assessment. OSDBU 

needs to determine the effectiveness of 

the site inspections that are part of the 

CVE Verification Program/Risk 

Mitigation, and to learn about the 

participants’ experiences and 

satisfaction levels. 

An agency may not conduct or 

sponsor, and a person is not required to 

respond to a collection of information 

unless it displays a currently valid OMB 

control number. The Federal Register
