I would like to buy 51% of a business that I have been involved with for 2 years as a manager. How long do I need to be 51% owner and operations manager to qualify as a bidder?

The short answer is “It depends. € There are a couple of scenarios where the outcome would be different. If we are looking at the purchase of the business and subsequent contracts from a purely procurement stand, there is no waiting time from becoming an owner to bidding on contracts.

When a waiting time would come into play would be in an ethics case. If, for example, you have been a silent partner in the company for some time, but also held a position at a VA medical center where you would have influence in decisions, then there is an ethical waiting period. This is typically 2 years.

If this is indeed the case, you can check with VA’s staff counsel that handles ethical questions. More.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
