PART 126--HUBZONE PROGRAM--Table of Contents

Sec. 126.606  May a contracting officer request that SBA release an 8(a) requirement for award as a HUBZone contract?

    Yes. However, SBA will grant its consent only where neither the 
incumbent nor any other 8(a) participant(s) can perform the requirement, 
and where the section 8(a) program will not be adversely affected. The 
SBA official authorized to grant such consent is the AA/8(a)BD.
