Small Business and Socioeconomic Status Representation Support

The contract supports the prime contractor in accurately completing socioeconomic representations required for federal contracting, including certifications such as Woman-Owned Small Business, Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business, and HUBZone status, ensuring compliance with federal guidelines. It also encompasses maintaining up-to-date and correct registration in SAM.gov and selecting the appropriate NAICS code, specifically 541611 for Management Consulting Services, to align with the nature of the work and maintain eligibility for set-aside opportunities. The work is to be performed in San Diego, California, with a response deadline of May 4, 2026, and is structured as a subcontract under the Department of Defense’s ASC SUPPLIER OPER OEM DIVISION. While no specific set-aside type is designated, the focus on socioeconomic certifications implies the need for precise documentation to support potential future bid opportunities reserved for small and disadvantaged businesses. The contract demands a high degree of accuracy in federal compliance systems, with the understanding that errors in representation or registration could invalidate proposals or breach contractual obligations.
