About this file
This is a Questions and Answers document addressing clarifications for a small business set-aside furniture procurement expected to be under $350,000. The document contains five questions received between July 14-18, 2026, with responses addressing key procurement requirements.
The SBA nonmanufacturer rule does not apply to this procurement, as it is structured as a small business set-aside below $350,000 and is not set-aside under 8(a), HUBZone, SDVOSB, or WOSB programs, eliminating the need for manufacturer waivers. Regarding scope, existing microwave and refrigerator units in Room 106 will remain in place and are not available for replacement. The contractor bears full responsibility for delivery and installation of all furniture at Building 1215, including provision of all necessary material-handling equipment; while the LRS loading dock is available, it is not required, and an alternative loading dock location has been identified in the updated Purchase Description. Personnel conducting delivery and installation must obtain pre-approval through Security Forces using the provided SFS Form 12 for background checks and must present a REAL ID upon entry to the facility. One-time deliveries may be accommodated by government-provided escort, subject to personnel availability and prior coordination with the government.

Questions and Answers
Question # Question Answer Date Received 1 Does the SBA nonmanufacturer rule apply to this procurement, and if so, has an individual waiver been obtained or must the quoted furniture be manufactured by a qualifying small-business manufacturer?
The nonmanufacturer rule does not apply to small business set-aside contracts at or below $350,000, but it does apply to all set-aside contracts under the 8(a), HUBZone, SDVOSB, and WOSB programs. This requirement is solicited as a small business set-aside, is not set-aside under any of the listed programs, and is expected to be under $350,000, so it is not subject to the nonmanufacturer rule. No waiver is necessary.

2 Is the contractor required to provide a new microwave/refrigerator combination unit for Room 106, or will the existing units remain?
The existing units will remain and were mentioned solely to describe existing items that will remain in place, so this is unavailable space for new furniture.

3 Is the contractor responsible for moving all furniture from the LRS loading dock to Building 1215?

5 What access or screening requirements will apply to delivery and installation personnel?
All personnel must be pre-approved through Security Forces by submitting their information on an SFS Form 12, which has been attached to the solicitation. This will be used to perform a background check. Approved personnel are required to present a REAL ID upon entry.
One-time deliveries may be able to be accomodated by a government-provided escort, but this will depend on personnel availabilty and coordination prior to arrival.
