QUESTION RESPONSE (RESERVED FOR GOVERNMENT)
N/A Attachment 22, Section L, L.3.2.4
Based on a recent GAO decision ((Innovate Now, LLC, B-419546, April 26, 2021), in which the GAO sought SBA’s input to interpret the intent of its regulations, specifically regarding the application of 13 C.F.R. § 125.8(e) which states:
"A procuring activity may not require the protégé firm to individually meet the same evaluation or responsibility criteria as that required of other offerors generally. The partners to the joint venture in the aggregate must demonstrate the past performance, experience, business systems and certifications necessary to perform the contract."
In its opinion, GAO agreed with SBA that the CFR prohibits an agency from applying the same experience requirements to protégés as other offerors generally and, to further the intent of the Mentor-Protégé program, protégés must be held to a different experience standard from mentors and other offerors. Taking the GAO and SBA’s opinions into consideration:
1) Will the Contracting Officer modify the stated requirement that, ‘Of the cumulative total of six (6) contracts, three (3) contracts must be prime contractor contracts which allows a maximum of three (3) contracts specific to joint ventures, partners, affiliates, subcontractors, etc. performing meaningful work to achieve successful performance’ to align with the language from 13 C.F.R. . § 125.8(e)?
