10. DESCRIPTION OF GOOD FAITH EFFORT

The maximum practicable utilization of small, small disadvantaged, women-owned, HUBZone, veteran owned (optional), and service-disabled veteran-owned small business concerns as subcontractors in Government contracts is a matter of national interest with both social and economic benefits. When a contractor fails to make a good faith effort to comply with a subcontracting plan these objectives are not achieved, and 15 U.S.C. 637(d)(4)(F) directs that liquidated damages shall be paid by the contractor.

In order to demonstrate your compliance with a good faith effort to achieve the small, small disadvantaged, women-owned, HUBZone, veteran-owned small business (optional) and service-disabled veteran-owned small business subcontracting goals, attach additional documentation outlining the steps your company plans to take. These steps will be negotiated with the Contracting Officer prior to approval of the plan.
