FAR Regulation
• FAR 19.502.2 – Total Small Business Set-Asides
• Allows the Contracting Officer to set aside an acquisition if he or she has reason to believe that offers will be obtained by at least two responsible small business concerns.
• Total small business set-asides shall not be made unless such a reasonable expectation exists. Although past acquisition history of an item or similar items is always important, it is not the only factor to be considered in determining whether a reasonable expectation exists.

Teaming Arrangements and Joint Ventures
• This acquisition does not prohibit teaming arrangements or Joint Ventures
• Offerors proposing a joint venture, subcontracting, or another form of teaming arrangement should review 13 C.F.R. § 121.103
• All team members must meet the socioeconomic status for the set-aside and the limitations on subcontracting (FAR 52.219-14) apply. i.e. the small business team members must perform at least 50% of the value of the work to be completed.
• The SBA is the sole authority for making determinations of small business status for small business programs. Such determinations are binding on the Offeror and on the contracting officer.
• a finding by the SBA of affiliation between an Offeror and its proposed team member(s) or subcontractor(s) may result in the Offeror being found to be other than a small business and therefore ineligible for contract award

Ostensible Subcontractor Rule – Things to Consider
If the Offeror proposes using subcontractors, the Offeror shall consider the following for compliance with the Small Business Administration’s (SBA) Ostensible Subcontractor Rule (reference 13 CFR 121.103):
1. Who will manage the contract?
2. Which party possesses background and expertise necessary for contract performance?
3. Which party pursued the contract?
4. The degree of collaboration in preparation and submission of the proposal.
5. Whether there are discrete tasks to be performed by each subcontractor(s), or whether there is instead a co-mingling of personnel and resources.

Ostensible Subcontractor Rule – Things to Consider
6. Which party will perform the more complex and costly contract functions?
7. The relative amount of proposed work (annual dollar value) to be performed by each subcontractor(s).
8. The business size (number of employees and annual revenue) of each subcontractor(s).
9. Is the proposed subcontractor(s) ineligible to submit a proposal because it does not meet the solicitation size standard requirements?
10. Did the prime include subcontractor personnel in the proposed organizational structure, and did the prime propose the managerial staff of the incumbent in their proposals (all or some)?
The SBA has the authority to make a final decision on compliance with the Ostensible Subcontractor Rule;
therefore, compliance with the rule will not be evaluated by NASA GRC
