140G0223R0014 AMENDMENT 001
Attachment 05 Questions and Answers 01-04 Question 01 When may other-than-small business compete?
This opportunity is currently set-aside for small business entities only. If the results of the small business set-aside are unsatisfactory to the Government, then the opportunity may be amended to allow other-than-small entities to compete. Examples of unsatisfactory results:
1. Response(s) are from entities without evidence of capability or intent to perform at least 50% of the services; or
2. Response(s) with unreasonable pricing.
Question 02 How are Small Business Joint Ventures (JV) and Small Business with other-than-small business subcontractor(s) being evaluated?
Factor (A) Contractor’s Technical Personnel Experience. The Government will evaluate the evidence provided to a assure at least 50% of the services will be performed by the primary small business contractor or JV.
Factor (B) Contractor’s Technical Capabilities. The Government will evaluate the evidence provided to a assure the respondent is capable of performing at least 50%.
Factor (C) Contractor’s Past Performance. Only the JV Entity or the Small Business Prime Entity will be evaluated for past performance; because past performance has proven to be a quality indicator of expected future performance.
Question 03 Can other-than-small businesses quote at the same time as the small business prime?
Not at this time. This opportunity is currently set-aside for small business entities only. (See Question and Answer 01) If the Government amends the opportunity to allow other-than-small entities to compete, then all capable and responsible entities may compete for the contract award.
Question 04 What forms need to be signed?
