H.R. 408 would direct the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to establish a program
for mentor firms to enter into agreements with proteg6 firms to help them compete for direct
contracts and subcontracts with DHS. Large businesses that contract with DHS could apply
to be mentor firms, while small businesses, historically black college or universities, or
minority institutions of higher education could apply to be proteg6 firms.
DHS is currently carrying out activities similar to those required by this act, and any new
activities required under the legislation would not necessitate substantial action by the
department. Thus, CBO estimates that implementing H.R. 408 would not have a significant
cost; any spending would be subject to the availability of appropriated funds.
The CBO staff contact for this estimate is Lindsay Wylie. The estimate was reviewed by
Leo Lex, Deputy Director of Budget Analysis.
