For selection criterion (7) the Government will evaluate firms by: In support of Sub-factor (A), (1) the offeror shall provide historical data on utilization of SB, SDB, WOSB, HUBZoneSB, and SDVOSB over the past three years showing dollar value, percentage of work (of total contract value) subcontracted to large businesses, SB, SDB, WOSB, HUBZoneSB, SDVOSB, and HBCU/MI; (2) Information on national awards received within the past five years for outstanding support to SB concerns. National awards received within the last ! five years will be considered more favorably than national awards beyond five years; (3) Information showing ratings received on completed projects with regards to the firms implementation of subcontracting plans; (4) Information on any existing, planned or pending mentor-protege agreements under either the DOD or SBA 8(a) Programs; (5) Information on use of Community Rehabilitation Program organizations certified under the Javits Wagner O Day Program by the National Industry for the Severely Handicapped (NISH) or the National Industry for the Blind (NIB); and (6) Final SF 294s on projects completed within the past 3 years, and if subcontracting goals were not met, provide an explanation. In support of Sub-factor (B), the offeror shall identify each subconsultant by name, discipline and size status and also identify, in terms of dollar values and percentage of total proposed price, the extent of work you will perform as the prime contractor. The offeror is advised that th! e Government-wide goals for the total value of all prime contracts per fiscal year are 23% to SB; 5% each to SDB and WOSB; 3% each to HUBZone SB, VOSB and SDVOSB; and 5% to HBCU/MI. In addition, the Naval Facilities Engineering Command FY 09 subcontracting targets in term of dollar value of subcontracts are 77.51% to SB, 16.18% to SDB, 14.53% to WOSB, 1.42% to HUBZone SB and 0.14 % to SDVOSB. If the offeror is unable to meet the minimum targets, an explanation should be provided, stating what actions were take to satisfy the minimum targets and how such actions failed to meet the objective. FAR 52.219-8, Utilization of Small, Small Disadvantaged and Women-Owned Small Business Concerns states in part; the Contractor hereby agrees to carry out this policy in the awarding of subcontracts to the fullest extent consistent with efficient contract performance. If the offeror does not intend to subcontract, provide a detailed explanation why subcontracting would not result in efficient contract performance. The offerors are reminded that in order! to receive proposal evaluation benefit as a HUBZone SB either as prime or subconsultant, proposed HUBZoneSBs must be certified by the Small Business Administration. Prime contractors may determine whether a prospective subconsultant is a certified HUBZone by accessing the Central Contractor Registration (CCR) at www.ccr.gov. For Small Disadvantaged Business (SDB) Certifications, effective October 1, 2008, the offeror may accept a self-certification from its SDB subcontractors as defined in 13 CFR 124.1002.
