Based in part on Blackmon'smisrepresentations the SBA granted Patriot 8a status in November 2006

Based in part on Blackmon'smisrepresentations, the SBA granted Patriot 8(a) status in November 2006.Shortly thereafter, Patriot entered into three 8(a) contracts to providetemporary staffing services to the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA)Consolidated Mail Outpatient Pharmacy (CMOP) in Leavenworth, Kan., one ofseven such VA pharmacies throughout the nation that process and distributemedical prescriptions to veterans Those contracts were valued atapproximately $5.4 million. SBA regulations prohibit a former employer of anydisadvantaged owner of an 8(a) applicant company from being involved in themanagement of the applicant company unless the SBA determines that the formeremployer does not have actual control of the applicant company or thepotential to control the applicant company. Blackmon's status as a service-disabled veteran also wasused by Patriot to try to secure government contracts.Although Blackmon knew that her former employer and others were actuallyrunning Patriot, she concealed their involvement so that the company couldsecure 8(a) certification. Infact, Patriot was actually controlled and operated by her former employer andothers, who operated another temporary staffing company that was not eligiblefor the 8(a) program. Although Blackmon was the actual owner/president ofPatriot, she was primarily a figurehead whose status as an African-Americanwas used to obtain 8(a) certification for Patriot, thereby enabling Patriot,and her former employer, to obtain government 8(a) set-aside contracts. According to court documents, Blackmon purchased and became the president ofPatriot in November 2003. By securing 8(a) certification, Patriotqualified for government contracts specifically set aside for 8(a) companies.

Specifically, Blackmon concealed theinvolvement of her former employer, who was not a socially and economicallydisadvantaged person, in the management and operations of Patriot becauserevealing his involvement would have compromised Patriot's chances ofreceiving 8(a) certification. Under the separate plea agreements, which are subject to courtapproval, Patriot and Blackmon have agreed to cooperate with the Department'songoing investigation.Blackmon admitted to providing false information to the SBA so that Patriotcould qualify for certification under Section 8(a) of the Small Business Act,a designation given to businesses owned and operated by socially andeconomically disadvantaged persons.
