8a
Direct/Sole
Source Awards
With OCT Consulting’s SBA-certified 8(a) Small Disadvantaged Business status, federal government agencies can contract directly with OCT using sole-source acquisition. OCT Consulting can receive directed sole-source contracts up to a ceiling of $4 million.
Sole-source contracts are usually approved quickly. Federal agencies can get credit for the amount of work they issue to 8(a), Disadvantaged, and Small Businesses. Federal government agencies can identify work especially suited for an 8(a) firm and can set aside the project without advertising on FedBizOpps. This allows the federal government agency to award the contract to OCT without any lengthy delays.
