Preference is given to Indian-owned enterprises as far as practicable, and the outcome of this research will determine whether the subsequent solicitation will be set aside exclusively for Small Business Indian Firms, Small Business concerns, or issued unrestricted if insufficient qualified responses are received. All submissions must be directed to Melissa Lake, Contract Specialist, at the Gallup Indian Medical Center, with compliance to SAM registration and strict adherence to certification requirements. False or misleading claims may result in penalties under federal law, including 18 U.S.C. § 1001 and the False Claims Act.
