§ 819.806 - Pricing the 8(a) contract.
Latest version.
-
In order to expedite the 8(a) process, SBA should be informed as soon as a disparity between the 8(a) offered price and the estimated fair market price is determined. The SBA and the VA contracting office should collaborate to determine if the disparity is:
(a) A result of deficiencies in developing the fair market price, thereby requiring revision to the estimate;
(b) A result of overpricing by the 8(a) company, thereby requiring further efforts to negotiate a decrease in the offered price; or
(c) A legitimate differential which should be funded through the SBA business development expense.
