Imiklomelo Yezinkontileka Zomthetho Ezingenayo I-WOBs Not Met Once Once in 20 Years
Iyini Uhlelo Lokuncintisana Kwebhizinisi Lwabesifazane?
Ngo-1994 Congress yadlulisa umthetho odinga uhulumeni wesifundazwe ukuba anikeze okungenani u-5% wazo zonke izinkontileka zikahulumeni ukuqinisekisile amabhizinisi asemakhaya .
Uhlelo Lusebenza Kanjani? Ingabe Ukusiza Abesifazane?
Yebo. Kodwa hhayi cishe ngokwanele.
Inhlolovo yeHhovisi likaHulumeni le-United States (Accounting Accountability Office) (GAO) libike ukuthi iningi lemikhombandlela yezinhlelo ezincane zebhizinisi nemingcele empeleni isusa ukuqondiswa kude nezinhloso zabesifazane.
Ngo-2001, ngisho nangemva kokuba umthetho usetshenziselwe ukubhekana nomkhuba wokubandlulula ngokumelene namabhizinisi asemakhaya, ama-2.5% kuphela ezinkontileka zanikezwa ngamabhizinisi asebesifazane.
Ngonyaka ka-2007, eminyakeni eyisithupha kamuva, uhulumeni wesifundazwe usalokhu engaphumeleli kule mfuneko egunyaziwe futhi unikeze kuphela izivumelwano ezingu-3.8% kubantu besifazane.
Ngonyaka ka-2014 kuphela amaphesenti angu-4.3 wezinkontileka zikahulumeni esiphezulu waya ku-WOBs - okwenziwa ngonyaka we-20 ngonyaka we-quotas ohambisiwe ophethwe yi-federalally. UMnyango wezokuVikela wehla kakhulu futhi ngonyaka ka-2014 kuphela amaphesenti angu-1.5 wemiklomelo yemvumelwano eya kuma-WOBs.) (Umthombo: Ibhizinisi leBloomberg)
Kungani Abesifazane Abangatholi Izivumelwano Eziphezulu Zikahulumeni?
Kunezinkinga eziningana ezithinta ukubandlululwa kwabesifazane ekunikezeni izivumelwano zikahulumeni. Enye yalezi zinkinga ukuthi ayikho inzuzo yokunikeza izinkontileka kwabesifazane futhi azikho izinhlawulo lapho uhulumeni ehluleka ukuhambisana nomthetho.
Ngokusho kwemiphumela yocwaningo, i-Government Accounting Office, ibike ukuthi, "Iziphathimandla zikaHulumeni ezivela kuzo zonke izigaba zisitshele ukuthi ngokuvamile ziphazamiseke ngenani kanye nokuyinkimbinkimbi kwezidingo zezinhlelo ezincane zokwenza izinkampani zamabhizinisi nezinhloso zabo ezihlobene. Lezi zikhulu zikholelwa ukuthi izinhlelo bathambekele ekuxosheni amabhizinisi amancane angabesifazane. "
Ingabe Ukuphathwa Kwamabhizinisi Amancane Kwenza Noma yini Engasiza Ushintsho Olwengeziwe Lwama-WOB?
Yebo! I-Small Business Administration (SBA) yamemezela izinguquko eziningi ezintsha nezithakazelisayo ze-WOBs. Umthetho Omusha Wokugunyazwa kaZwelonke wezokuVikela ka-2013 wanika i-SBA izinguquko kuhlelo lwayo lweNkontileka Yomkhakha Wezinkampani Zomabhizinisi Abancane Amabhizinisi Amancinci ukuze kusize amabhizinisi amancane abanikazi abathola izinkontileka zikahulumeni kanye nokusiza uhulumeni wesifundazwe ukuba ahlangane futhi adlulise umnqopho walo ophethwe yizinkampani eziyisihlanu ezinqunyelwe abesifazane .
Imibiko ye-SBA ithi:
"Ngaphambi komthetho omusha, inani elithengisiwe lokukhishwa kwenkontileka yabamabhizinisi abancane (i-WOSB) nabamabhizinisi amancane abesimabhizinisi (EDWOSB) abangeke bakwazi ukudlula imali engamaRandi ayizigidi eziyizigidi ezingu-6.5 ekuthengiseni izinkontileka kanye ne $ 4 million kuzo zonke ezinye izivumelwano. umthetho ususa lezi zingqimba ze-WOSB kanye nama-EDWOSB okubenza bafinyelele ngokwengeziwe amathuba okuthenga izinkampani ngaphandle kwemikhawulo noma imikhawulo enani lenkontileka. "
UMthetho WezokuVikela kaZwelonke wezokuVikela ka-2013, owaqala ukusebenza ngoMeyi 7, 2013, wabuye wacela i-SBA ukuba iqhube olunye ucwaningo ukukhomba nokubika izimboni ezingaphansi kwamabhizinisi amancane amancane abesifazane. Kuthemba ukuthi leyo miphumela yokutadisha izobonisa ukuthi amabhizinisi afanelekayo angamakhosikazi angakwazi kanjani ukubamba iqhaza ohlelweni lwe-Women's Federal Contract Program ye-SBA futhi ancintisane futhi anqobe izinkontileka zikahulumeni.
Ngubani u-Eligibile?
Izidingo zokufaneleka kufanele zishintshe ngezikhathi ezithile ngakho qiniseka ukuthi uhlola iwebhusayithi ye-SBA ye-udpates yakamuva kakhulu. Kodwa-ke, kusukela ngo-Okthoba 2015, ukuze afaneleke, iqine:
- Kumele kube okungenani u-51% onomnikazi futhi olawulwa yiyodwa noma ngaphezulu kwabesifazane, futhi
- Ngokuyinhloko iphathwe yindoda eyodwa noma ngaphezulu.
Ukwengeza, abesifazane kumele babe izakhamizi zase-US. I-SBA idinga ukuthi lo mshini kumele ube mncane kwimbonini yawo eyinhloko ngokuhambisana namazinga wezinga le-SBA yalo mboni. Ukuze i-WOSB ibhekwe ngokuthi "ihlelekile ngokwezomnotho," abanikazi bayo kumele babonise ukungabi nengozi kwezomnotho ngokuhambisana nezidingo ezibekiwe emthethweni wokugcina.
Ukwaziswa Okubanzi Nge-WOSB Program
Ingabe iBhizinisi Lokuthengiswa Kwamabhizinisi (Women's Owned Business Programme) (WOB) alihlukanisi Nabantu?
Cha.
Uhlelo alubandlululisi abantu, lumane lusize abesifazane ukuba babe nokuncintisana futhi babonakale ngaphakathi kubhalisi oluphakathi.
Uhlelo lwe-WOB Contracting Program aludingi abesifazane ukuba bathandeke ngaphezu kwamadoda, kodwa kuvumela izikhulu zezinkontileka ukuba zisebenzise ukuhlakanipha kwabo "ukuncintisana okukhawulelwe" ukwandisa amathuba okuthola izinkampani zamabhizinisi asezintombi (WOBs). Lokhu kungase kubonakale sengathi kuyindlela enhle kwabanye, futhi indlela yokungalingani kwabanye, kodwa izinhlelo zafakwa ngoba abesifazane abanamakhono abanikazi bebhizinisi babedluliselwa ngamabhizinisi angaphansi kwamadoda. Iqiniso lokuthi umgomo wawuyi-5% kuphela yezivumelwano zikahulumeni ngokwawo ngokwawo okukhulunywa ngayo ukuthi u-wesilisa-obhekene nomkhakha wezinkontileka zikahulumeni uye waba kanjani.
