OMB Control No. 9000–0006,
Subcontracting Plans/Individual
Subcontract Report (SF 294) and ISRS,
and 9000–0192, Utilization of Small
Business Subcontractors.
This clearance covers the information
that offerors and contractors must
submit to comply with the requirements
in Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR)
52.219–9, Small Business
Subcontracting Plans, regarding
subcontracting plans as follows:
1. Subcontracting plan. In accordance
with Section 8(d) of the Small Business
Act (15 U.S.C. 637(d)), any contractor
receiving a contract for more than the
simplified acquisition threshold must
agree in the contract that small business,
veteran-owned small business, servicedisabled veteran-owned small business,
HUBZone small business, small
disadvantaged business, and womenowned small business concerns will
have the maximum practicable
opportunity to participate in contract
performance. Further, 15 U.S.C. 637(d)
imposes the requirement that
contractors receiving a contract that is
expected to exceed, or a contract
modification that causes a contract to
exceed, $700,000 ($1.5 million for
construction) and has subcontracting
possibilities, shall submit an acceptable
subcontracting plan that provides
maximum practicable opportunities for
small business, veteran-owned small
business, service-disabled veteranowned small business, HUBZone small
business, small disadvantaged business,
and women-owned small business
concerns. Specific elements required to
be included in the plan are specified in
section 8(d) of the Small Business Act
and implemented in FAR subpart 19.7
and the clause at 52.219–9.
2. Summary Subcontract Report
(SSR). In conjunction with the
subcontracting plan requirements,
contractors with subcontracting plans
must submit an annual summary of
subcontracts awarded as prime and
subcontractors for each specific Federal
Government agency. Contractors submit
the information in a SSR through the
Electronic Subcontracting Reporting
System (eSRS). This is required for all
contractors with subcontracting plans
regardless of the type of plan (i.e.,
commercial or individual).
3. Individual Subcontract Report
(ISR). In conjunction with the
subcontracting plan requirements,
contractors with individual
subcontracting plans must submit semiannual reports of their small business
subcontracting progress. Contractors
submit the information through eSRS in
