Where the Contractor's lists of potential small business, veteran-owned small business, service-disabled veteran-owned small business, HUBZone small business, small disadvantaged business, and women-owned small business subcontractors are excessively long, reasonable effort shall be made to give all such small business concerns an opportunity to compete over a period of time.

(5) Provide notice to subcontractors concerning penalties and remedies for misrepresentations of business status as small, veteran-owned small business, HUBZone small, small disadvantaged or women-owned small business for the purpose of obtaining a subcontract that is to be included as part or all of a goal contained in the Contractor's subcontracting plan.

(6) Assurances that the Contractor will include the clause of this contract entitled "Utilization of Small Business Concerns" in all subcontracts that offer further subcontracting opportunities, and that the Contractor will require all subcontractors (except small business concerns) that receive subcontracts in excess of the applicable threshold specified in FAR 19.702(a) on the date of subcontract award, with further subcontracting possibilities to adopt a subcontracting plan that complies with the requirements of this clause.

A. Total estimated dollar value of all planned subcontracting for an Individual Contract Plan; or the offeror's total projected sales, expressed in dollars, and the total value of projected subcontracts to support the sales for a Commercial Plan; i.e., the sum of LB and SB: $___________________ (This number will be auto calculated when the total Large Business (LB) and total Small Business (SB) fields are populated.)

B. Total estimated dollar value of planned subcontracting with large businesses (LB):

Total estimated dollar value of planned subcontracting with small businesses (SB):

C. Total estimated dollar value and percent of planned subcontracting with small businesses (include veteran-owned, service-disabled veteran-owned, HUBZone, disadvantaged and women-owned small business concerns):

$_____________ (Percentage of total dollars will auto populate)

Calculating Small Business Subcategories These numbers have already been captured in SB dollars; therefore, you don't need to roll them up to equal the total small business dollars allocated above. It is possible to have one company that fits into more than one category (i.e. SDVOSB and HUBZone) and the same dollar amount would be allocated to both categories.
