Respondents should provide company name, SAM UEI, contact information, business size designation under the applicable NAICS code, and socio-economic small business status (if applicable, such as service-disabled veteran-owned small business, veteran-owned small business, HUB Zone, 8(a), women-owned small business, or small-disadvantaged business).
