FY14 NASA/MSFC Direct Goal Achievements (Through January 31)
FY14 Focus Areas • Increase performance against agency HUBZone, SDVO, and WOSB percentage goals • Increase utilization of multiple award contracts for contracting with small businesses • Increase percentage of awards placed with small businesses under the simplified acquisition threshold ($25K to $150K)
Rule of Parity • SBA has determined that there is parity among the set aside authorities for the subcategories in small business • NASA interprets the SB Act to allow COs to choose equally among all of the SB set-aside programs, without giving one preference over the others • CO should consider other competitive options before proceeding with an SB set-aside • Although parity exists among the four SB development programs, FAR 19.804-4 (f) enables SBA to determine whether existing requirements should continue under the 8(a) program
