Requires annual reports from the Administrator to the small business committees concerning such programs. (Sec. 1642) Directs the CG to conduct a study to: (1) update a study required under the Small Business Jobs Act of 2010 concerning mentor-protege programs for small businesses participating in the SBA section 8(a) guaranteed loan program, (2) examine whether potential affiliation issues between mentors and proteges under prior programs have been resolved by the date of enactment of this Act, and (3) examine whether the regulations issued pursuant to the Small Business Act have increased opportunities for mentor-protege pairs and decreased the paperwork required for such pairs participating in programs at multiple agencies.

Directs the Administrator to ensure that the federal subcontracting reporting system to which such reports are submitted is modified to notify the Administrator, the appropriate contracting officer, and the appropriate Director of Small and Disadvantaged Business Utilization if an entity fails to submit a required report. Makes such failure a breach of contract for which appropriate action may be taken.

Part VI: Contract Bundling - (Sec. 1671) Consolidates SBA provisions relating to contract bundling (the consolidation of two or more procurement requirements into a solicitation for a single prime contract that is unlikely, because of its size or complexity, to be suitable for award to a small business).

Requires the Administrator, in the case of a previously bundled contract that is to be recompeted as a bundled contract, to determine, among other things, the amount of savings and benefits achieved under the bundling. Requires a procurement center representative who believes that a procurement as proposed will render small business prime contract participation unlikely to recommend to the Activity alternative procurement methods to increase small business contracting opportunities. Requires the head of an agency, before proceeding with an acquisition strategy that could lead to a bundling of contract requirements, to conduct market research to determine whether bundling is necessary and justified. Prohibits an agency head from carrying out an acquisition strategy that includes bundled contracts valued in excess of certain thresholds unless the senior procurement executive for such agency certifies to the agency head that steps will be taken to include small businesses in the acquisition strategy prior to its implementation. Allows a small business, in the case of a bundled contract, to submit an offer that provides for the use of a team of subcontractors for contract performance. Directs the Administrator to develop and maintain a database of information on each bundled contract awarded by an agency and each small business displaced as a prime contractor as a result of such award. Requires annual reports from the Administrator to the small business committees on federal contract bundling, including cost savings and impact on small businesses.
