Small Business Prime or Subcontractor Participation (Set-Aside Potential)

Small businesses are invited to participate as prime contractors or subcontractors in the manufacturing of a filter adapter under socio-economic programs including 8(a), HUBZone, WOSB, and SDVOSB, with the potential for set-aside designation to prioritize eligible firms. The opportunity is tied to NAICS code 332618, which classifies the work under Other Fabricated Metal Product Manufacturing, and is managed by the Department of Defense through the W6QK Acc-Dta office. Responses must be submitted by August 14, 2026, at 5:00 PM, with the solicitation posted on July 30, 2026, providing a two-week window for submissions. Participation is structured as a subcontracting opportunity, allowing qualified small businesses to either lead the effort as a prime or support as a subcontractor, with eligibility requirements tied to federal small business certification programs. There is no specified place of performance or point of contact listed, and the exact set-aside type remains undetermined, leaving it open for potential designation based on market research and applicant qualifications.
