Small Business Subcontracting Plan
For projects directly or indirectly funded by federal agency (i.e., NIH, DoD, NASA, DARPA, U.S. Navy,) FAR Subpart 19.7 requires a Small Business Subcontracting Plan. If the UCLA proposal is expected to exceed $750,000 for the total contract period of performance, a small business subcontracting plan is required either with the proposal submission or during the pre-award negotiation stage. This requirement is noted in the agency’s solicitation.
To submit the small business subcontracting plan to Campus Purchasing, a department must:
- Include a $1 J-class requisition by using VCK #999990001.
- Attach a completed Small Business Subcontracting Plan & Reporting Checklist (see Related Information) with required backup documents attached to the J-class requisition when submitting via BruinBuy.
