This is a Small Business Set-Aside Subcontract Language document applicable to the State of Illinois under Title 44 Illinois Admin. Code. The document pertains to the FY27 BCI Cellebrite Software contract opportunity, which involves the purchase of two Cellebrite subscriptions for the Revenue department's Criminal Investigations Division. The contract is structured as a small business set-aside procurement, establishing specific parameters for subcontracting arrangements.

Under the small business set-aside designation, a small business awarded this contract may subcontract no more than 49% of the contract value to businesses not registered in the Small Business Set-Aside Program (SBSP). This restriction ensures that at least 51% of the contract work remains with the small business prime contractor, thereby preserving the intent of the set-aside program and promoting meaningful small business participation in the procurement.
