(4) NPS anticipates that this procurement will include consolidation of numerous requirements into one procurement consistent with FAR 7.107. The work involved in each task order that will be issued under this MATOC could be issued under a stand-alone acquisition or combined to a lesser degree. Please comment on the extent that consolidation of these requirements into one large procurement impacts your firm¿s ability to compete. Are there elements of this work which you firm cannot perform because they have been consolidated? For example, are there geographical areas where your firm cannot perform work or are there types of work that your firm cannot perform? Please comment if there are any ways that NPS could divide this work into multiple procurements that would allow your firm to be more competitive. If the consolidation of these requirements will have no impact on your firm¿s ability to compete, please state so. A space for comments has been provided on the Contractor Information Form. (5) Under FAR 52.219-14, Limitations on Subcontracting, the employees of each small business must perform at least 15% of the work as measured by the dollar value of their task order contract. The 15% shall not include the costs for materials. Responses must include a description as to how your small business would meet this FAR requirement. Response to this announcement is strictly voluntary; no reimbursement will be made for any costs associated with providing information in response to this Sources Sought Announcement or any follow-up information requests. Analysis of the quantity and quality of responses to this sources sought announcement will be considered in the market research being conducted, and in the making of any small business set-aside determination for this requirement. The Government anticipates conducting a competitive acquisition for this requirement. The amount of interest or lack thereof will determine the possibility of a competitive set-aside or full and open competition (the size of a small business firm includes all parents, subsidiaries, affiliates, etc.-see 13 CFR 121.108.) Misrepresentation of size status can result in penalties. Please refer to the current SBA rules regarding HUBZone firms, effective October 1, 2011.
