COLLINSWOOD, N.J. -- The Fed Cetera Network, a business development organization under 48 CFR 52.219-9, is pleased to offer U.S. Department of Education (ED) NextGen bidders the opportunity to join a one-hour teleseminar featuring nationally-recognized expert attorney and Fox Rothschild Partner Nicholas Solosky, Esq., on the small business participation provisions of ED solicitation 91003119R0008 (Business Process Operations or “BPO”).
The teleseminar will take place Friday, January 24, 2020, at 11:30 EST. NextGen bidders looking to avoid common mistakes seen in other recent Federal bids can register here.
Earlier this week, Amendment 8 of the BPO solicitation upped the ante even further on small business subcontracting, raising the goal to 47% (of Total Contract Value). This increase of fifteen percentage points represents over $100 million in additional, required small business spending during the first five years of the contract and forces bidders to consider adding more companies to their subcontracting plans for this crucial evaluation criteria, which unofficially acts as a tiebreaker where the other two evaluation criteria are scored equally among bidders.
