(a) Definitions. As used in this clause—
Long-term contract means a contract of more than five years in duration, including options.

Small business concern—
(1) Means a concern, including its affiliates, that is independently owned and operated, not dominant in its field of operation, and qualified as a small business under the criteria in 13 CFR part 121 and the size standard in paragraph (d) of this clause.
(2) Affiliates, as used in this definition, means business concerns, one of whom directly or indirectly controls or has the power to control the others, or a third party or parties control or have the power to control the others. In determining whether affiliation exists, consideration is given to all appropriate factors including common ownership, common management, and contractual relationships.

(1) Set aside exclusively for a small business concern identified at 19.000(a)(3) that is issued under an unrestricted multiple-award contract, unless the order is issued under the reserved portion of an unrestricted multiple-award contract ( e.g., an order set aside for a woman-owned small business under a multiple-award contract that is not set-aside, unless the order is issued under the reserved portion of the multiple-award contract);
(2) Issued under a multiple-award contract set aside for small businesses that is further set aside for a specific socioeconomic category that differs from the underlying multiple-award contract ( e.g., an order set aside for a HUBZone small business concern under a multiple-award contract that is set aside for small businesses);

Justification and approval of use of brand name or equal purchase description.
The use of Brand Name or Equal in this solicitation is approved because the solicitation includes, in addition to the brand name, a general description of those salient physical, functional, or performance characteristics of the brand name item that an "equal" item must meet to be acceptable for award.
If an offeror does not meet a salient characteristic that is not listed in the solicitation for the brand name, the Government will not use that to disqualify the offer. Only the listed salient characteristics will be used to determine an offeror acceptable or unacceptable. The salient characteristics are firm requirements of the Government and are not proprietary specifications or standards. Since, none of the listed salient characteristics are proprietary and only those listed will be used to determine an offer acceptable, it is determined that the use of brand name or equal will not limit competition to any brand that will meet the firm requirements of the Government.
There is no Defense Priorities and Allocations System (DPAS) assigned rating for this acquisition.
Quotes are due by the date and time listed in the PIEE solicitation module and must be submitted in the PIEE solicitation module.
