On average, over 30 new competitive task orders are
awarded each fiscal year
Under the predecessor contracts, the vast majority of
the dollars were awarded to non-small businesses.
However, for future requirements, the percentage of
dollars awarded to small businesses is expected to
increase significantly.
For each new requirement, small businesses will
receive first consideration based on researching the
