Question: Any bid my shipyard might submit to support this project would be almost entirely dependent upon more specialized subcontractors. So I’d like to request that permission, along with confirmation that the prime doesn’t need to keep 51% of the work in-house, and because I’m presently limited in my ability to share information with the subs, I’d need more time to get their fully-considered pricing and put together a proposal.

Answer: In accordance with 13 CFR 125.6 : In the case of a contract for services (except construction), it will not pay more than 50% of the amount paid by the government to it to firms that are not similarly situated. Any work that a similarly situated subcontractor further subcontracts will count towards the 50% subcontract amount that cannot be exceeded.

So you can still submit your quote even if you are not completing 51% of the work, as long as you are employing small businesses as subcontractors, and any small businesses that are subcontracted also use small businesses.
