About this file

This is a Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) clause that establishes price evaluation preferences for HUBZone small business concerns in federal contracting. The clause, FAR 52.219-4 (October 2022), mandates that a 10 percent evaluation factor be added to the price of all offers except those submitted by HUBZone small business concerns that have not waived the preference and otherwise successful offers from small business concerns. The 10 percent factor applies on a line item basis or to any group of items on which award may be made, and other evaluation factors specified in the solicitation must be applied before the price preference factor is considered.

The clause includes provisions for HUBZone small business concerns to elect waiver of the evaluation preference, in which case the 10 percent factor would be added to their offer for evaluation purposes. Additionally, when the two highest rated offerors are a HUBZone small business concern and a large business with equal evaluated offers after applying the price evaluation preference, award will be made to the HUBZone small business concern. For HUBZone joint ventures, the clause requires that at least 40 percent of the aggregate work performed by the joint venture must be completed by the HUBZone small business parties, with such work being more than administrative functions.
