VAAR 852.219-11 VA NOTICE OF TOTAL VETERAN-OWNED SMALL BUSINESS SET-ASIDE (JUL 2019) (DEVIATION) (a) Definition. For the Department of Veterans Affairs, Veteran-owned small business or VOSB : (1) Means a small business concern (i) Not less than 51 percent of which is owned by one or more Veterans or, in the case of any publicly owned business, not less than 51 percent of the stock of which is owned by one or more Veterans; (ii) The management and daily business operations of which are controlled by one or more Veterans; (iii) The business meets Federal small business size standards for the applicable North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code identified in the solicitation document; (iv) The business has been verified for ownership and control pursuant to 38 CFR part 74 and is so listed in the Vendor Information Pages (VIP) database, (https://www.vip.vetbiz.gov); and (v) The business will comply with VAAR subpart 819.70 and Small Business Administration (SBA) regulations regarding small business size and government contracting programs at 13 CFR part 121 and 125, including the nonmanufacturer rule and limitations on subcontracting requirements in 13 CFR 121.406 and 125.6, provided that any reference therein to a service-disabled veteran owned small business concern (SDVO SBC), is to be construed to also apply to a VA verified and VIP-listed VOSB. The nonmanufacturer rule and the limitations on subcontracting apply to all VOSB set asides and sole source contracts. (2) Veteran is defined in 38 U.S.C. 101(2). (b) General. (1) Offers are solicited only from eligible veteran-owned small business concerns. Only VIP-listed veteran-owned small business concerns (VOSB) may submit offers in response to this solicitation. A VIP-listed service-disabled veteran owned small business concern will be considered a VIP-listed veteran-owned small business concern for this purpose and must also meet the criteria identified in paragraph (a)(1). Offers received from concerns that are not VIP-listed veteran owned small business concerns shall not be considered. (2) Any award resulting from this solicitation shall be made to a VIP-listed veteran-owned small business concern that meets the size standard for the applicable NAICS code. (c) Representation. By submitting an offer, the prospective contractor represents that it is an eligible VOSB as defined in this clause, 38 CFR part 74, and VAAR subpart 819.70. Pursuant to 38 U.S.C. 8127(e), only VIP-listed VOSBs are considered eligible. Therefore, any reference in 13 CFR 121 and 125 to a service-disabled veteran-owned small business concern (SDVO SBC), is to be construed to apply to a VA verified and VIP-listed SDVOSB/VOSB and only such concern(s) qualify as similarly situated. The offeror must also be eligible at the time of award. (d) Agreement. When awarded a contract (see FAR 2.101, Definitions), including orders under multiple-award contracts, or a subcontract, a VOSB agrees that in the performance of the contract, the VOSB shall comply with requirements in VAAR subpart 819.70 and SBA regulations on small business size and government contracting programs at 13 CFR part 121 and 125, including the nonmanufacturer and limitations on subcontracting requirements in 13 CFR 121.406 and 125.6, provided that for purposes of limitations on subcontracting, only VIP-listed VOSBs are considered eligible and/or similarly situated (i.e., a firm that has the same small business program status as the prime contractor). An independent contractor shall be considered a subcontractor. An otherwise eligible firm further agrees to the following: (1) Services. In the case of a contract for services (except construction), it will not pay more than 50% of the amount paid by the government to it to firms that are not VIP-listed VOSBs. (2) Supplies or products. (i) In the case of a contract for supplies or products (other than from a nonmanufacturer of such supplies), it will not pay more than 50% of the amount paid by the government to it to firms that are not VIP-listed VOSBs. (ii) In the case of a contract for supplies from a nonmanufacturer, it will supply the product of a domestic small business manufacturer or processor, unless a waiver as described in 13 CFR 121.406(b)(5) is granted. (3) General construction. In the case of a contract for general construction, it will not pay more than 85% of the amount paid by the government to it to firms that are not VIP-listed VOSBs. (4) Special trade contractors. In the case of a contract for special trade contractors, it will not pay more than 75% of the amount paid by the government to it to firms that are not VIP-listed VOSBs. (5) Subcontracting. Any work that a VIP-listed VOSB subcontractor further subcontracts will count towards the percent of subcontract amount that cannot be exceeded. For supply or construction contracts, cost of materials is excluded and not considered to be subcontracted. For mixed contracts and additional limitations refer to 13 CFR 125.6. (e) Joint ventures. A joint venture may be considered a VOSB if the joint venture is listed in VIP and complies with the requirements in 13 CFR 125.18, provided, that any reference therein to service-disabled veteran-owned small business concern (SDVO SBC), shall also apply equally to a veteran-owned small business (VOSB) and is to be construed for the VA as only a VIP-listed VOSB. (f) Precedence. For any inconsistencies between the requirements of the SBA program for service-disabled veteran-owned small business concerns and the VA Veterans First Contracting Program, as defined in VAAR subpart 819.70 and this clause, the VA Veterans First Contracting Program requirements have precedence.
