A new group of 182 small businesses join the group of apparent winners on this recompete of the government’s primary vehicle for non-tech centric professional services.
The General Services Administration has started to unveil who it wants in the final batch of small business awardees for OASIS+, the next iteration of GSA’s massive government-wide professional services vehicle.
GSA on Thursday posted its list of 182 apparent winners for the first phase of rolling awards for the 8(a) portion of OASIS+. More selections are in the works, so do not sweat it if your company or client is not on the list right now.
“If, following award announcements, an offeror has not been notified of their award status, the offeror is still being evaluated as part of the rolling awards process. This cycle of rolling awards will continue until all awards are made,” GSA said in a Sam.gov posting alongside the list.
“Apparent” also remains the apt word here because companies that are now, or will be, on the list are subject to size status protests over whether they are in fact small businesses.
Once the awards are finalized, GSA will send out formal notifications and notices to proceed on the contract as early as Nov. 8.
