Official USDA 840 LF RFID ID tags approved for cattle and bison

The USDA‑APHIS solicitation requires offerors to submit a complete Small Business Subcontracting Plan that meets or exceeds the minimum FAR‑mandated goals (22 % Small Business, 5 % each for Small Disadvantaged, Women‑Owned, HUBZone, and Service‑Disabled Veteran‑Owned businesses, and 100 % reporting compliance). The plan must detail percentage and dollar goals, methods for developing those goals, source‑list development, record‑keeping, indirect‑cost allocation, and the responsibilities of a designated Subcontracting Program Administrator. Offerors must also provide a justification if no subcontracting opportunities exist. The plan becomes part of the contract and must be approved by the Contracting Officer before award. Proposals must be submitted by email to Jason Wilking (Jason.L.Wilking@usda.gov) and include a signed SF‑1449, a price schedule, and technical information to satisfy two evaluation subfactors: (1) proof of an approved USDA RFID cattle/bison tag, and (2) a comprehensive Shipping and Tracking Management Plan. All subcontractors receiving awards above $750,000 (or $1.5 M for construction) must comply with clause 52.219‑9. Reporting of subcontracting performance is required through the ISR/ESR system (www.esrs.gov). Failure to meet these requirements will result in an unacceptable rating and preclude contract award.
