Sec. 952.219-70  DOE Mentor-Protege program.

    In accordance with 919.7014 insert the following provision in 
applicable solicitations.

                  DOE Mentor-Protege Program (MAY 2000)

    The Department of Energy has established a Mentor-Protege Program to 
encourage its prime contractors to assist firms certified under section 
8(a) of the Small Business Act by SBA, other small disadvantaged 
businesses, women-owned small businesses, Historically Black Colleges 
and Universities and Minority Institutions, other minority institutions 
of higher learning and small business concerns owned and controlled by 
service disabled veterans in enhancing their business abilities. If the 
contract resulting from this solicitation is awarded on a cost-plus-
award fee basis, the contractor's performance as a Mentor may be 
evaluated as part of the award fee plan. Mentor and Protege firms will 
develop and submit ``lessons learned'' evaluations to DOE at the 
conclusion of the contract. Any DOE contractor that is interested in 
becoming a Mentor should refer to the applicable regulations at 48 CFR 
919.70 and should contact the Department of Energy's Office of Small and 
Disadvantaged Business Utilization.
