· If the contractor is participating in the Comprehensive Subcontracting Plan Test Program, individual plans are NOT required.

· The cumulative value of the basic contract and options is used to determine whether a subcontracting plan is required.

· Options require separate goals. See FAR 52.219-9(c) and 19.704(c).

· If there is a Master Subcontracting Plan in effect for this contractor, items 4 through 11 below do not apply. Note: Master plans are effective for three years after approval by the contracting officer, but contractors must maintain and update the plans as necessary. Changes must be approved by the contracting officer. See FAR 19.704(b).

· Is this a commercial plan? Yes No See Far 19.704(d).

The PCO/buyer will review the subcontracting plan and coordinate as required with the contractor and the cognizant contract administration office. After review, the PCO/buyer will complete/sign the checklist and provide the original checklist and a copy of the subcontracting plan to the local Air Force Small Business Office (SB). The SB will review the plan and obtain advice and recommendation from the SBA Procurement Center Representative (PCR). After review and coordination, the SB will notify the PCO/buyer of the results of the review before the start of negotiations.
