Small Business Set-Aside Subcontract Language ~44.pdf

The document appears to be an excerpt from the Illinois Administrative Code, specifically Title 44, Section 1.4545(g)(2), addressing regulations for small business contracts. It pertains to the Illinois Small Business Set-Aside Program (SBSP), which governs contract procurement and subcontracting guidelines for small businesses within the state.

The regulation stipulates that a small business awarded a contract through a small business set-aside is limited to subcontracting no more than 49% of the contract's total value to a business not registered in the Small Business Set-Aside Program (SBSP). This provision ensures that the majority of work (at least 51%) remains with the original small business contractor, maintaining the intent of the set-aside program to support and promote small business participation in state contracting.
