This market research will aid the DoD IACs Program Management Office in determining whether there is sufficient small business capability to support a small business set-aside. Regarding small business set-aside considerations, it is important to note that responses to this sources sought notice 1) must create the reasonable expectation that offers will be obtained from at least two responsible small businesses ( all of whom have Defense Contract Audit Agency (DCAA)-confirmed adequate accounting systems suitable for a cost reimbursement contract), 2) must clearly demonstrate the capability to bring the best scientific and technological resources to bear and 3) must do so in an manner that would ensure that at least 50 percent of the cost of contract performance incurred for personnel would be expended by employees of that small business concern. In addition, small business size status responses to this sources sought notice will be verified by the government via the System for Award Management (SAM) before making any small business set-aside determination and as such, it is imperative that small businesses ensure their SAM records are current and accurate (https://www.sam.gov). Industry responses to this sources sought shall be submitted by completing the attached Sources Sought Questionnaire (Attachment 1). Additional materials and information should not be submitted and will not be reviewed or considered. Respondents shall not alter the questionnaire format. This sources sought notice is in the service of awarding a follow-on contract to the existing DSIAC BCO contract (FA8075-14-D-0001), which was awarded as a small-business set-aside. It is the responsibility of parties interested in this DSIAC BCO market research effort to monitor Solicitation Number "FA8075-18-DSIACBCO" at FedBizOpps.Gov (https://www.fbo.gov) and towards that end the government recommends that interested businesses place themselves on the FedBizOpps.Gov "Watch This Opportunity" list, which will generate automatic email notification of any changes to the FedBizOpps.Gov announcement. Interested businesses might also take advantage of the FedBizOpps.Gov "Add Me to Interested Vendors" list should they desire that other interested parties know of their interest in these requirements. The information being requested is for planning purposes only and shall not be considered as a commitment by the government for any purpose. Responses are strictly voluntary and the government will not reimburse respondents for any costs associated with the submittal of the requested information. Any information submitted in response to this sources sought/request for information is subject to disclosure under the Freedom of Information Act, 5 USC § 552(a).
