SBA Institutes Changes in Surety-Bond Guarantee Program

The Small Business Administration has made changes in its surety bond guaranty program that indus-try officials say will benefit small construction firms. The changes, which take effect on Sept. 20, have the support of industry organiza-tions. [View Federal Register no-tice.] The new provisions include an increase in the maximum percent-age of losses incurred that SBA will guarantee under its preferred secu-rity bond program, to 90% from 70%. The 90% level applies to losses incurred on contracts of $100,000 or less, or if the surety bond is issued to certain categories of small dis-advantaged businesses. The change equalizes the maximum guarantee level for SBA’s preferred bond program with the level for the agency's prior-approval bond pro-gram, says Mark McCallum, Na-tional Association of Surety Bond Producers chief executive offi-cer. McCallum say the new per-centage level “will stimulate greater participation of surety com-panies in the programs.” He adds, “That, in turn, gives greater oppor-tunities to small and emerging con-tractors, who might not otherwise qualify for a surety credit in the standard market.” SBA's surety guarantees to other small compa-nies will be 80%. Lenore Marema, the Surety & Fidelity Association’s vice president for government affairs, said via email that increas-ing the SBA guarantee level

“significantly benefits small, emerg-ing and minority contractors, with no added cost to the government or the taxpayers.” In another change, SBA is increasing the con-tract-value threshold for its stream-lined “quick bond” application for surety credit, to $400,000 from $250,000. Marema said the higher quick-bond contract level “also will facilitate easier access for the smallest businesses to bond guar-antees as they grow beyond the existing $250,000 maximum under prior regulations, better enabling their transition to larger con-tracts.” McCallum notes that SBA also raised the dollar threshold at which a surety must notify the agency of a change order on a contract that has an SBA-guaranteed surety bond. The new standard requires notification for change orders of $500,000, up from the previous $100,000. McCallum says the change is in line with cur-rent industry practices. The SBA program is important, says McCallum. “Surety bonds are a prequalification mechanism,” he says. “Our members see it as an-other avenue to put small busi-nesses on the right path to being overall successful construction businesses.” SBA provides guaran-tees for bid, payment and perform-ance bonds for public- and private-sector contracts values at up to $6.5 million, or up to $10 million with a federal contracting official's certi-fication. According to an SBA fi-nancial report, the agency had a balance for guaranteed surety bonds guaranteed of $5.7 billion in fiscal year 2016.
