This technical factor evaluates the socio-economic status of the Offering entity.

For the purposes of this solicitation and resultant contract (lease), North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) codes is 531120. Prime and Joint Ventures submitting a proposal in response to this solicitation must meet the small business size standard.

Competition is restricted to eligible Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses.

2. SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS

SDVOSB

Status as a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business is determined in accordance with 13 CFR Parts 125.8 through 125.13, and Part 128. Any business intending to seek socioeconomic status as a veteran-owned small business should closely review Part

128. As of January 1, 2023, SBA has assumed control of the SDVOSB certification process for purposes of nearly all small business federal contracting, and self-certification for SDVOSBs is being eliminated. Only those contractors intending to compete for SDVOSB contracts through VA’s Veterans First Contracting Program have been required to obtain verification of their qualified status through VA’s Center for Verification and Evaluation (CVE). Contractors seeking SDVOSB certification can submit applications and documents for processing on SBA’s website

(https://veterans.certify.sba.gov). SDVOSB status through SBA must be certified and active at the time initial proposals are due. The Offeror’s Unique Entity ID must correspond to the Unique Entity ID in SAM.GOV.
