WASHINGTON, D.G. - To
bolster the Agency's minority
business efforts, the U.S. Small

institute a comprehensive
portfolio management program,
a study by the N tional
Academy of Public Administra­
tion ( APA) concluded today.
The report is a result of SBA
Administrator James Abdnor'

The NAPA study team said, f :
"Weare struck by the long delay t
in adios on the many improve- .
ments and reforms which have
been identified over the 20
years. We believe that the MSB­
COD program receives a dis­
proportionately small share of
SBA's resources." "
The team also said that "in-
. adequate emphasis on
workforce effectiveness is the
biggest single deterrent to MSB­
COD's productivity."
