The General Services Administration identifies who it wants to join the 8(a), service-disabled/veteran-owned and woman-owned small business portions for the professional services vehicle.
The General Services Administration is eyeing 399 more small businesses to join the growing roster of awardees for OASIS+, the massive government-wide professional services contract vehicle with no ceiling.
GSA announced those companies as apparent awardees in a trio of notices posted Friday with this one regarding the 8(a) set-aside track, this second posting on the service-disabled/veteran-owned SB category, and this third notification for the woman-owned SB portion.
The breakdown of new intended awards covers 127 in the 8(a) track, 112 for the SDVOSB category and 130 for the woman-owned SB portion.
Per custom, the word “apparent” is key with the window now open to protests over whether those 399 companies are in fact small businesses or not.
Each of those notices also reminds industry that GSA continues to evaluate proposals as part of its rolling awards process for the new 10-year vehicle. GSA essentially says to continue staying tuned for potentially more announcements.
As for the new group of 399, GSA plans to send them official notices-to-proceed as early as April 16. They would then start identifying and pursuing task orders the next day.
This is the second round of awards GSA has made for the three aforementioned tracks of OASIS+ following the first issued back in the fall.
