Small Business Subcontracting Participation

Small, disadvantaged, or women-owned businesses have the opportunity to participate as subcontractors under a contract administered by the Defense Logistics Agency within the Department of Defense, with accelerated payment terms enabled through FAR clause 52.232-40. This initiative is designed to enhance subcontracting involvement from underrepresented business categories by providing faster cash flow and improved financial stability during performance. The contract does not specify a NAICS code, set-aside type, or detailed place of performance, indicating a broad scope potentially spanning multiple locations or missions under the agency’s purview. While no solicitation number or point of contact is provided, the contract reference is accessible via the DIBBS portal, allowing eligible firms to engage directly with prime contractors seeking to fulfill subcontracting obligations under this framework.
