Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCU)/Minority Institutions (MI), Woman-Owned Small Business (WOSB), Historically Underutilized Business Zone (HUBZone), Veteran-Owned Small Business (VOSB), and Sevice-Disabled Veteran-

Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) will also be considered small business participation to the extent it is qualified under

NAICS 336412 for the purpose of this evaluation.

Note (1): Historically Black Colleges and Universities/Minority Institutions (HBCU/MIs) are considered as small disadvantaged but should be broken out separately when identifying intended subcontractors.

Note (2): Pursuant to Sections 8(d) of the Small Business Act, a concern is small for subcontracts that relates to Government procurements if it does not exceed the size standard for the NAICS code that the Prime contractor believes best describes the product or services being acquired by the subcontract. In other words, the size of your subcontractors and suppliers is determined by the NAICS code of their subcontract, which may or may not be the same NAICS code as the one for your Prime contract with the

Government.

Note (3): Be as specific and detailed as possible in describing the type of service or supply being provided by the Prime and each subcontractor in order to demonstrate the variety and complexity of the work to be performed. Additional space other than this chart may be necessary to adequately address the required information.

5) Small Business Subcontracting Plan

1) Separate from the Small Business Participation Plan, other than U.S. Small Business Offerors shall also submit a Small

Business Subcontracting Plan meeting the requirements of FAR 52.219-9 and DFARS 252.219-7003 (DFARS 252.219-7004 for

Offerors with approved Department of Defense (DoD) Comprehensive Subcontracting Plans). Large Businesses must submit acceptable subcontracting plans to be eligible for award. Subcontracting Plans shall reflect and be consistent with the commitments offered in the Small Business Participation Plan.

2) The Small Business Subcontracting Plan is not a requirement for evaluation, but rather, a requirement for award to a large business and will be incorporated into any resultant contract. The Small Business Subcontracting Plan will not count against the page limitation for this volume. In addition to providing the Small Business Subcontracting Plan with the

Offerors proposal submission, a copy of the plan shall be provided to the Offerors Administrative Contracting Officer (ACO) as soon as possible after the issuance of this solicitation but no later than the date set for receipt of proposals. The proposal shall specify name, address, phone number, and e-mail address of the ACO to which the plan was submitted. Offerors that have approved Comprehensive and/or commercial subcontracting plans must still submit a separate small business participation plan.

Note: Subcontracting goals are calculated as a percentage of subcontracted dollars as opposed to small business participation goals which are calculated as a percentage of the total contract dollars.

L-12 ACQUISITION SOURCE SELECTION INTERACTIVE SUPPORT TOOL (ASSIST)

During the conduct of this acquisition, the Acquisition Source Selection Interactive Support Tool (ASSIST) will be used by the

Government to support the proposal evaluation and source selection process. A separate tool, the ASSIST2Industry, will be used in conjunction with ASSIST to accomplish all exchanges with Offerors after receipt of proposals pursuant to Federal Acquisition Regulation

(FAR) 15.306. ASSIST2Industry provides the ability for the Government to issue, and the Offerors to receive and respond to, all

Evaluation Notices (ENs) in a secure online environment.

In order to initiate the use of ASSIST2Industry, the Government requires the names, company titles, telephone numbers, and email addresses of two (2) individuals that the Offeror has designated as responsible for receiving and responding to Government ENs through

ASSIST2Industry. The designation of two (2) individuals is for the purpose of insuring availability of one individual if the other individual is not available. The required information regarding these two (2) individuals must be submitted with the Offerors proposal and included in the cover letter.

After the solicitations closing date, the Government will establish an account in ASSIST2Industry for each individual identified by the

Offeror that has submitted a proposal in response to this solicitation. The two individuals named by the Offeror will be authorized access to that account. Two (2) separate system generated emails will be sent to each individual. One of the emails will contain the individuals ASSIST2Industry username. The other email will contain the individuals temporary password. Using the provided username and temporary password, each individual can then go to https://ASSIST2Industry.army.mil to access the account. NOTE: The first time a user logs in, the user will be required to change the temporary password before the user can proceed to use the site.

Whenever the Government issues ENs to the Offeror through ASSIST2Industry, the Governments Contracting Officer will notify the Offeror through a medium independent of ASSIST2Industry ( e.g., e-mail) that the Offeror has ENs in ASSIST2Industry waiting for a response.

There will be no ENs in ASSIST2Industry until such notice is issued by the Contracting Officer.

All Offerors are advised that ASSIST2Industry has been updated and it is now the responsibility of PRIME Contractors to establish accounts for their SUBCONTRACTORS to respond to Government ENs. A separate area within ASSIST2Industry has been created to allow authorized Subcontractor POCs to upload proposal files only. Subcontractors will not be able to access any other information on the

ASSIST2Industry website (e.g. Questions/Evaluation Notices, Responses, etc.). Once a Subcontractor has been added, they will receive a user ID (e.g. subcontractor0001) and password (an initial password) that will be sent via two separate system generated e-mails. A

Subcontractor will have one user ID for all PRIMES and solicitation responses, i.e. if you are a Subcontractor to multiple Prime

Contractors and multiple solicitation responses, you will only have one user ID. Once an account has been established for the

Subcontractor, go to https://ASSIST2Industry.army.mil access the account. Prime Contractors will only be able to see the number of _________________________________________________________ files submitted by their Subcontractors; but, will be UNABLE TO VIEW the Subcontractors files.______________________________________________________________________________________________

NOTE: Both Prime Contractors and Subcontractors are instructed to review the ASSIST2Industry Users Guide, located under the Getting_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Started tab on the website. The guide has been updated and provides step by step…
