Subcontractor Inclusion for Preferred Entities (Blind/Sheltered Workshop or SDVE)

Certified Blind/Sheltered Workshops and Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Enterprises are invited to participate as subcontractors to provide ancillary services such as packaging, labeling, and logistics support on contracts where prime contractors can earn bonus points by including these entities. The opportunity is open under NAICS code 561990 and is administered by MDC CONSERVATION through the Missouri agency. Subcontractors whose services contribute to the prime contractor’s compliance with inclusion goals will help improve the prime’s evaluation score, creating a mutually beneficial partnership. The solicitation is active from July 8, 2026, with responses due by July 29, 2026, and parties must engage through the designated Oracle Cloud portal to submit qualifications or express interest. Participation does not guarantee a contract but enhances the prime's competitiveness by leveraging preferred entity designation.
