In context

How Subcontracting Plan works in supplier diversity

Large businesses and small businesses bidding on bundled contracts must submit subcontracting plans with goals for using small businesses, including specific categories (SDB, WOSB, SDVOSB, HUBZone). Plans must describe outreach efforts, the administrator responsible, and methods for identifying potential subcontractors. Failure to comply with subcontracting plans can result in liquidated damages.
