Bill Summary
Service Provider Opportunity Clarification Act of 2015 (Sec. 2) This bill requires the Small Business Administration (SBA) to issue regulations providing examples of activities that would be considered a failure to make a good faith effort to comply with the requirements imposed on any entity (other than a small business) awarded a prime contract exceeding $500,000 (or exceeding $1 million if for construction of a public facility) that contains an SBA clause that: notifies potential offering companies of SBA requirements relating to contracts awarded pursuant to the negotiated method of procurement; or requires any bidder selected for a contract reward to submit to the appropriate federal agency a subcontracting plan which incorporates specified SBA information.
AI Summary
This bill, known as the Service Provider Opportunity Clarification Act of 2015, mandates that the Small Business Administration (SBA) create regulations within 270 days of its enactment that will offer specific examples of actions that would be considered a failure to genuinely try to meet the requirements of subcontracting plans. These requirements apply to larger businesses, not small businesses, that are awarded a prime contract worth over $500,000 (or over $1 million for public facility construction) and include specific clauses related to SBA requirements for contracts obtained through negotiation or requiring a subcontracting plan with SBA information.
