For service contracts, subcontractors not listed as VIP-listed SDVOSBs or VOSBs cannot receive more than 50% of the government payment. General construction contracts have an 85% limit, and special trade construction contracts have a 75% limit for non-listed subcontractors, excluding material costs.

Non-compliant SDVOSBs/VOSBs may face referral to the VA Suspension and Debarment Committee, fines, or prosecution.
