SET-ASIDES FOR LABOR SURPLUS AREAS OR SMALL BUSINESS FIRMS It is the policy of the Department of Defense to aid labor surplus areas. In order to carry out this policy, a part of a pro­ curement may be set aside for negotiation with concerns which' will perform/ or cause to be performed, in a labor surplus area, a sub­ stantial portion of the contracts thus awarded. • After first giving consideration to Labor Surplus Set-asides the law, and Department of Defense Regulations, provides that entire procurements or parts of procurements may be set aside exclusively for the competition of Small Business firms. For this purpose, Small Business is generally defined in Title 13, Chapter I, Part 121, Small Business Size Standards (Revision 3, and Amendments thereto), and the Armed Services Procurement Regulation, Paragraph 1-701.4. II PROCUREMENT BY FORMAL ADVERTISING Formal Advertising means procurement by competitive bids and awards as prescribed in Section II, Armed Services Procurement Re­ gulations, and involves the following basic steps: (i) Preparation of the invitation for bids, describing the re­ quirements of the Government clearly, accurately and completely. (ii) Publicizing the invitation for bids, through distribution to prospective bidders listed in this Agency's bidders list, posting in public places, and such other means as may be appropriate, in suffi­ cient time1 to enable prospective bidders to prepare and submit bids before the time set for public openings. (iii) Submission of bids by prospective contractors;’and (iv) Awarding the contract, after the bids are publicly, opened, to that responsible bidder whose bid, conforming to the invitation for bids, will be most advantageous to the Government, price and other factors considered. PROCUREMENT BY NEGOTIATION Negotiated procurement is accomplished in accordance with Section III, Armed Services Procurement Regulation, with the maxi­ mum amount of competition available under the circumstances existing at the time, by issuance of a Request for Proposal and entering into a contract with the lowest responsible offeror after negotiations. The policy of this Agency is to issue the Request for Proposal and request return so as to allow the offeror six weeks to review the technical data and secure quotations before returning his proposal. However, in many cases there is insufficient time to allow the supplier this much time to submit his proposal. Requests for proposals, and further information relating thereto, are available from the Army/ Industry Procurement Liaison Office, Procurement Division, SMUAP-APZ, Ammunition Procurement and Supply Agency, Joliet, Illinois, 60436.
