responses hereto for any subsequent action. All prospective contractors must be registered in the

System for Award Management (SAM) database to be awarded a DoD contract. No set-aside

decision has been made. Note that a key factor in determining an acquisition to be a Small

Business Set Aside is that small business prime contractors must perform at least 50% of the

effort, as defined in Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) clause 52.219-14.

Any information submitted by respondents to this sources sought synopsis is voluntary. This

whether any forthcoming solicitation will be conducted as a full and open competition or as a

set-aside for small businesses, or any particular small business program.
