Navigating the New Small Business Subcontractor Past Performance Requirements

Please join us on Wednesday, September 7, 2022 for a webinar on the newly implemented Small Business Administration (“SBA”) requirements for requesting, reporting, and relying on small business subcontractor past performance. With past performance already playing a key role in evaluations and award decisions, these new requirements are certain to shake up procurement dynamics, increase prime contractor administrative obligations, and generate a wave of new bid protest challenges.

We’ll address when and what subcontractor past performance evaluations may be requested, provide guidance on monitoring and reporting the ratings and evaluations, and cover potential risks and penalties for failure to comply with the obligations. As contractors adapt to these new requirements, we’ll also highlight the potential implementation challenges as well as anticipated challenges to solicitation terms and past performance evaluations likely to surface in short order in bid protest litigation.
