Small Business Subcontracting Participation (WOSB/HUBZone)

The contract opportunity is designed to support small businesses certified as Women-Owned Small Businesses (WOSB) and Historically Underutilized Business Zone (HUBZone) firms by providing them with avenues to serve as subcontractors across multiple product lines under a prime contract managed by the Defense Logistics Agency. This initiative is aligned with the broader goal of increasing subcontracting participation from underrepresented small business categories within the Department of Defense supply chain. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code 332996 identifies the primary industrial sector as Other Miscellaneous Fabricated Metal Product Manufacturing, indicating that subcontracting work will involve the fabrication of specialized metal components or assemblies. The solicitation was posted on July 21, 2026, and while details regarding specific performance locations and point of contact are not provided, the opportunity is open to eligible WOSB and HUBZone entities seeking to engage in downstream supply roles. The structure of the contract facilitates direct access for these small businesses to support critical defense logistics needs without requiring them to compete for prime contracts.
