Amendment Three (3)

1. Question: If a prime organization’s budget is requesting a subcontract to another organization that exceeds $700,000 in total costs, would the subcontract organization be required to submit a Small Business Subcontracting Plan?

However, if the offeror is selected for an award, the subcontractor, whose total cost exceeds $700,000, shall submit Subcontracting Reports in accordance with Article H.12. Subcontracting Provisions.
