                    The draft Small Business Administration                     *FY 2018-2022 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 the public and stakeholders are provided an opportunity to comment. This Strategic Plan provides a framework that will support greater efficiency, effectiveness, and accountability of 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 global competitiveness.                

The SBA proposes four strategic goals for the next five years: (1) Support small business revenue and job growth; (2) Build healthy entrepreneurial ecosystems and create business-friendly environments; (3) Restore small businesses and communities after disasters; and, (4) Strengthen the SBA's ability to serve small businesses.
