If you have a sub-k plan then you have to know this. There’s no getting around it. Your primary POC can do it but if you designate it then just share your login. That’s free advice. Thank me later.
This database is a one-stop-shop for analytical data concerning sub-k plans for agencies and contract shops. How are contracting dollars being spent within small business concerns? Senior Execs want to know. What is/is not being accomplished within sub-k plans? DOCs will need to understand. Not to mention the President and our Congress.
What Do I Need?
– -approved sub-k plan
-UEI number (no more DUNS!).
-Signatory Authority Form
-POC information.
-Agency/agencies of award.
