Surety Bond Waiver Program

Abstract

The Miller Act (40 USC 270a, et seq.) requires federal construction contractors to provide performance and payment surety bonding. The Conference Report (H.R. Rep. No. 102-311) on the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Years 1992 and 1993 (Public Law 102-190) directed the General Accounting Office to assess the Department of Defense's (DOD) implementation of a test program in which it was to award construction contracts to small and disadvantaged businesses that DOD or the Small Business Administration (SBA) exempted from the requirements of the Miller Act.
