Small Business Subcontracting Plan Implementation Support

The contract supports Cummins in fulfilling its obligations under the Department of Defense subcontracting plan by providing comprehensive administrative and strategic assistance.

Although specific geographic performance locations and point of contact details are not provided, the scope requires continuous engagement across Cummins’ operations to sustain compliance, track metrics, and facilitate meaningful partnerships with small, minority-owned, women-owned, and other designated small business entities. The contract underscores the importance of structured support systems to meet regulatory requirements while advancing economic development goals within the defense industrial base.
