Small Business Subcontracting & Payment Acceleration Services

The contract seeks support services to assist the prime contractor in accelerating payments to small business subcontractors by ensuring full compliance with FAR 52.232-40, which mandates prompt payment practices. The focus is on streamlining the invoicing process through the Defense Logistics Agency’s Wide Area WorkFlow system, ensuring all subcontractor invoices are properly formatted, submitted, and tracked to eliminate delays. The provider must understand the flow-down requirements of the clause and implement controls to guarantee subcontractors meet all documentation and compliance standards necessary for timely processing. Services will be performed in direct support of the Department of Defense’s ASC Commodities Division at Tinker Air Force Base, with the work centered on enabling financial efficiency across the subcontracting supply chain. The effort requires expertise in federal procurement regulations, WAWF system operations, and small business subcontracting dynamics. Proposals are due by August 13, 2026, under NAICS code 541611, which classifies the work as management consulting services. The contract type is subcontract, and while no specific set-aside designation is provided, the work inherently supports small business participation through enhanced payment processes.
