VAAR 819.7008
38 U.S.C. § 8127
Award Threshold
$5M (flat)
The VA is required to set aside or sole source to SDVOSBs before competing requirements. As an SBA-Certified SDVOSB, Corelon qualifies for VA sole source awards up to $5 million — a single ceiling that applies to supplies and services alike, with no separate manufacturing tier and no CPI indexing.
Award Process
- CO confirms requirement is under the applicable threshold
- CO verifies Corelon on VA's VETBIZ/SBA certification
- CO issues sole source solicitation directly to Corelon
- Award — no competition required if fair and reasonable price is established
