Financing for this trade

Agencies under 925120 are funded by appropriations and pay for buildings and equipment through bonds and lease purchase agreements rather than business loans.

Is 925120 the right code for a planning or community development agency?

Yes, if the establishment administers planning, zoning or community development programs as a government agency. Private urban planning firms use 541320. Economic development programs focused on business may use 926110. Small businesses almost never use a 92 code, since sector 92 describes government itself rather than the companies that serve it.

Does 925120 have an SBA size standard?

No. Code 925120 covers government agencies, which are not businesses, so SBA does not set a size standard for it. A company that sells to planning and development agencies is measured by the size standard of its own industry code, and that is the code to use on SBA loan applications and small business set aside bids.

How do businesses that sell to planning and development agencies finance contracts?

Vendors to planning and development agencies, such as planning consultants, engineers and surveyors, usually use a line of credit or invoice factoring backed by government receivables, since agencies often pay on 30 to 60 day terms. Equipment loans and SBA 7(a) loans fund growth. Lenders look at the contract, the agency's payment record, bonding where required and the vendor's performance history.
