00 21 16em 4, factor **The referenced location outlines the number of completed projects to be submitted in support of a viable Solicitation response, including the Size and Scope/Complexity requirements to be met. Our company meets these requirements. This section also includes requirements that are considered restrictive to our company and would not allow us, by the strict interpretation of the RFP, to submit a response or be considered for a seat on this MACC.

**Specifically, Factor 1 states, “Offerors shall have acted as the prime contractor on all submitted projects. Offeror’s experience performing as subcontractor will not be considered, nor will experience of companies proposed to work as subcontractors on the awarded contract,” and “…the Offeror’s experience as a subcontractor will not be considered.”

**As an SBA recognized Mentor that has ushered multiple entities through the SBA 8(a) program, our firm’s responsibilities for efforts performed under this umbrella should be given latitude. While, Joint Ventures without shared experience are able to provide individual company experience for consideration, it is reasonable that a Mentor’s experience within a JV should equally be allowed to be submitted. Unfortunately, the legal parameters of Mentor/Protégé Program, and subsequent Joint Venture agreements, requires that the Mentor be issued Subcontract status (under the umbrella of the Joint Venture). In short, while our capabilities, past experience and bonding capacity have allowed several small businesses to become independent thriving General Contractors, to the benefit of the Government, the experiences gained by these JV entities are not being allowed to be capitalized on; to the detriment of the Mentor firm.

**Please confirm that, as described above, companies experiencing these extenuating circumstances may provide Past Performance gained as a Mentor under an SBA recognized Joint Venture umbrella.
