Small Business Subcontracting Participation

The contract focuses on promoting small business subcontracting participation by encouraging the prime contractor to engage certified small businesses such as Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSB), Women-Owned Small Businesses (WOSB), and HUBZone firms. This approach is designed to meet the Department of Veterans Affairs' evaluation preferences for socioeconomic participation, particularly within the scope of NAICS code 423450. The contractual work is set to be performed in Albuquerque, with a response deadline of May 29, 2026. The contract is managed by the 262-NETWORK Contract Office 22 under the Department of Veterans Affairs. While the solicitation number and specific set-aside details are not provided, the emphasis is clearly on leveraging small business subcontractors to fulfill project requirements. This initiative supports VA's broader mission of fostering economic opportunities for disadvantaged and veteran-owned small businesses through subcontracting efforts.
