Book excerpt: The Office of Small and Disadvantaged Business Utilization (OSDBU) within NASA promotes the utilization of small, disadvantaged, and women-owned small businesses in compliance with Federal laws, regulations, and policies. We assist such firms in obtaining contracts and subcontracts with NASA and its prime contractors. The OSDBU also facilitates the participation of small businesses in NASA's technology transfer and commercialization activities. Our driving philosophy is to consider small businesses as our products. Our customers are the NASA Enterprises, Field Centers, Functional Staff Offices, major prime contractors, and other large institutions. We hone the skills of our products to make them marketable to our customers in the performance of NASA missions.Unspecified CenterNASA PROGRAMS; AEROSPACE TECHNOLOGY TRANSFER; TECHNOLOGY UTILIZATION; CONTRACTORS; GOVERNMENT/INDUSTRY RELATIONS; SPACE COMMERCIALIZATION; PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT; ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT; RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT; CONTRACT MANAGEMENT; CONTRACT NEGOTIATION
