Subcontracting

A company awarded a contract by the federal government is called a prime contractor. These prime contractors are not always able to provide all of the goods and services required to fulfill the contract. To meet the obligation the prime contractors often locate and purchase goods and services from businesses both large and small. This concept is referred to as Subcontracting.

For small businesses, subcontracting becomes especially interesting when prime contractors are preparing bids for contracts for $500,000 (1 million for construction) or more. In this instance the federal government requires prime contractors to develop and include in their bid a small business plan representing 23% of the total value of the contract. This 23% represents: 7% Small Businesses, 5% Small Disadvantaged Businesses (SDB), 5% Women-owned Small Businesses (WOB), 3% Service Disabled Small Businesses and 3% Hubzone.
