HR 5450 United States House · 118th Congress

To amend the Small Business Act to modify the application of price evaluation preference for qualified HUBZone small business concerns to certain contracts, and for other purposes.

This bill modifies the Small Business Act to expand price evaluation preferences for HUBZone small businesses. Specifically, it adds a new provision requiring that price evaluation preferences apply to "unrestricted orders" under multiple-award contracts or the unrestricted portion of partially set-aside contracts. This change directly affects HUBZone small businesses seeking federal contracts, as it extends their eligibility for price preferences to these specific contract types. The Small Business Administration must update its rules within 90 days of the bill's enactment to implement this change.
