**General Information about HUD\'s Contracting**

What does HUD do?

The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) is the Federal
agency responsible for national policy and programs that address
America\'s housing needs, improve and develop the Nation\'s communities
and enforce fair housing laws. HUD\'s business is helping to create a
decent home and suitable living environment for all Americans, and it
has given America\'s cities a strong national voice at the Cabinet
level. HUD\'s programs include:

>  Providing mortgage insurance to help individuals and families become
> homeowners;
>
>  Development, rehabilitation and modernization of the nation\'s
> public and Indian housing stock;
>
>  Development of HUD-insured multifamily housing;
>
>  Development, improvement and revitalization of America\'s urban
> centers and neighborhoods;

-   Providing rental subsidies to lower-income families to help them
    obtain affordable housing; and,

>  Enforcement of Federal Fair Housing laws.

HUD is assisted in carrying these various programs and in managing its
own operations by a variety of independent contractors and vendors.

**Who is responsible for awarding HUD contracts?**

HUD's Chief Procurement Officer (CPO) has overall authority and
responsibility for the Department's contracting activities. The CPO
serves as HUD's Senior Procurement Executive.

Contracts are awarded and managed by four principal offices within the
Department: the Office of the Chief Procurement Officer (OCPO) in HUD
Headquarters and the three Field Contracting Operations (FCOs) located
in Philadelphia, PA, Atlanta, GA and Denver, CO. The FCOs have branches
and staff located in other cities within their jurisdictions.

Contact information for OCPO and the FCOs is available on HUD's Internet
contracting homepage at:

**What does HUD buy?**

HUD contracts for a variety of services and supplies. Its contracting
needs may vary significantly from headquarters to field offices.

 **Headquarters**

Contracts and purchases awarded here primarily support Headquarters
programs and operations. They include professional services such as
research and evaluation studies, business process re-engineering and
technical assistance to HUD funding recipients and logistical support
services including building maintenance and supplies. They may also
include logistical and technical support for the operation of the
Department nationwide (e.g., information technology hardware, systems
and services).

 **Field**

The majority of HUD's field contracts and purchases support the field
program operations of the Department's Office of Housing/Federal Housing
Administration (FHA). The most common requirements are:

**Property Management, Marketing and Sales**

Under its Single Family Housing Real Estate Owned and Multifamily
Property Disposition Programs, HUD manages, markets, and sells single
and multifamily real estate properties such as single-family homes,
apartment projects and nursing homes nationwide. Contracted services may
include property management (e.g., on-site managers), general repairs
and maintenance, rehabilitation, property marketing, sales closings,
routine inspections, appraisals, foreclosures, security guard services,
demolition and other related services (e.g., advertising,
architectural/engineering design). They also may provide subcontracting
opportunities (e.g., roofing, painting, paint removal, grounds keeping,
snow removal, etc.).

**FHA Mortgage Insurance Support Services**

Contracted services for the FHA's Single and Multifamily Housing
mortgage insurance programs may include: appraisals, field reviews of
appraisals, architectural and compliance reviews, building inspections,
mortgage credit analysis, mortgage insurance endorsement processing
(including data entry), title service, underwriting analysis,
construction cost analysis, construction inspections and review of owner
financial statements and project occupancy. These services may be needed
for both single and multifamily properties.

> These contracts may provide opportunities for small businesses (see
> also HUD's Procurement Opportunity Programs on page 4).

***Please note\...*** Purchases of general supplies and services to
support the operations of HUD\'s field offices normally ***do not***
provide any significant, broad, open market contracting opportunities.
The vast majority of these purchases are made using simplified
acquisition procedures with local vendors, through orders placed under
existing contracts (e.g., via Federal Supply Schedules established under
contracts with the U.S. General Services Administration), or via
agreements with other Federal agencies.

**How much did HUD spend on contracts in 2003?**

During the Federal fiscal year 2003 (October 1, 2002 through September
30, 2003), HUD purchased just over \$1 billion worth of supplies and
services for its own use (see Appendix I).

**Was all that money spent on new contracts?**

As is typically the case, a large portion of the 2003 dollars was used
to place task and delivery orders under existing contracts and to
exercise options to contracts. The number of new contracts awarded may
vary widely from year to year depending on the existence of contracts to
meet HUD\'s needs. When HUD has an ample number of current contracts
available to meet its needs, relatively few new contracts may be
awarded. When new needs arise or old contracts expire, more new awards
will be made, and opportunities to compete for HUD\'s business will be
greater.

HUD also purchases a significant amount of supplies and services from
General Services Administration (GSA) schedule contracts (See the
section "For More Information").

**What contracting opportunities are there with organizations that
receive HUD financial assistance?**

HUD provides substantial amounts of financial assistance to State and
local governments and nonprofit organizations for a variety of purposes
such as modernizing public housing and renovating urban areas. HUD\'s
funding recipients, in turn, use a significant portion of these funds to
contract directly for supplies, services and construction to help them
carry out their projects. These procurements may offer
considerable-contracting opportunities in general and often provide
significant opportunities for participation by small, small
disadvantaged and women-owned small businesses.

**How does HUD find Contractors?**

HUD does not maintain "bidders mailing lists." Instead, the Department
posts new solicitations for contracts and notices of purchases expected
to exceed \$25,000 on its Internet Contracting Opportunities page:

**http://www.hud.gov/offices/cpo/contract.cfm**

Businesses can browse the current solicitations and download any of the
complete solicitations they choose. We think this is a faster, less
costly way to tell you about our opportunities. It also lets you decide
which contracts you wish to compete for and reduces the risk of your
missing out on any competition. Please note that HUD also lists prime
contracts with potential subcontracting opportunities on this website.

######## HUD\'s Procurement Opportunity Programs

**What are Procurement Opportunity Programs?**

The Procurement Opportunity Programs (POP) provide direct HUD
contracting and subcontracting opportunities to businesses and
organizations which are eligible for preferential treatment under a
variety of Federal laws, Executive Orders, etc. (e.g., the Small
Business Act). Eligible organizations include: small, small
disadvantaged, women-owned, historically underutilized business zone
(HUBZone), veteran-owned, and service disabled veteran-owned small
businesses. The POPs also provide a means for establishing and
monitoring HUD's annual goals for the participation of other eligible
small businesses in its direct procurement of supplies and services and
to report HUD\'s performance to the U.S. Small Business Administration
(SBA).

HUD's Office of Small and Disadvantaged Business Utilization (OSDBU),
created in response to Public Law 95-507 (the Amendments to the Small
Business Act of 1958), is responsible for the development and
administration of the POPs. For further information about the POPs you
may contact the OSDBU directly (see Appendix II). A brief description of
each of the current POPs follows.

**Small Business Set-Aside** **Program** (see also Federal Acquisition
Regulation (FAR), Subpart 19.5)

Section 15 of the Small Business Act, as amended, requires the Federal
Government to reserve a fair proportion of its total purchases and
contracts for property and services for small business concerns. The
Government does this by reserving or "setting aside," entire
procurements or parts of procurements for small businesses. This does
not guarantee that any particular small business will receive a
contract. It means that only small businesses may compete for the
contract ("total small business set-aside") or the reserved portion
("partial small business set-aside").

The Small Business Act also requires the Government to buy goods and
services at competitive, fair market prices. Therefore, contracts are
set aside [only]{.underline} when at least two qualified small
businesses are expected to submit offers that are competitive in terms
of market prices, quality and delivery. In this context, "market price"
means a price based on reasonable costs under normal competitive
conditions, and not lowest possible cost (FAR 19.001).

The SBA establishes size standards defining small businesses on an
industry-by-industry basis. They are defined by dollar volume of sales,
number of employees or a combination of these factors. Size standards
are published in FAR Subpart 19.1 and are also available online at SBA's
Internet site (see page 8). The size standard is particular to the
supplies or services being procured, e.g., it varies by procurement.

**Small Business Subcontracting Program** (see also FAR Subpart 19.7)

Section 211 of Public Law 95-507 requires that the successful offeror or
bidder on contracts valued at \$500,000 or more (\$1 million for
construction of public facilities) must submit to the awarding agency an
acceptable subcontracting plan that sets percentage and dollar goals for
the award of subcontracts to small business, veteran-owned small
business, service-disabled veteran-owned small business, HUBZone small
business, small disadvantaged business, and women-owned small business
concerns. **(NOTE: Small business concerns receiving prime contracts are
exempt from this requirement.)** The plan must be submitted and accepted
before the contract may be awarded. Appropriate HUD staff (OSDBU and
Contracting Officers) review all subcontracting plans submitted by prime
contractors to ensure compliance with the requirements of Section 211.
In addition, FAR 19.702 requires, "Any contractor receiving a contract
for more than the simplified acquisition threshold \[\$100,000\] must
agree in the contract that small business, veteran-owned small business,
service-disabled veteran-owned small business, HUBZone small business,
small disadvantaged business, and women-owned small business concerns
will have the maximum practicable opportunity to participate in contract
performance consistent with its efficient performance."

**Section 8(a) Program** (see also FAR Subpart 19.8)

Section 8(a) of the Small Business Act authorizes the SBA to enter into
contracts with other Federal government agencies to supply needed goods
and services. The SBA in turn subcontracts the actual performance of the
work to small businesses enrolled in the SBA\'s 8(a) Program. The goal
of the 8(a) Program is to help eligible small disadvantaged firms become
independently competitive for Federal contracts.

The selection of an 8(a) subcontractor may be made on a sole source or
competitive basis. Contracts under \$3 million (\$5 million for
construction contracts) are normally awarded on a sole source basis.
Contracts in excess of \$3 million must be competed among 8(a) firms.
HUD has executed a memorandum of understanding with the SBA, which
allows it to directly award 8(a) contracts to 8(a) firms. This helps
speed up the award of these contracts.

To be eligible for 8(a) Program participation, a small business must be
at least 51 percent owned, controlled and daily operated by one or more
socially [and]{.underline} economically disadvantaged persons.

 **"Socially disadvantaged"** individuals are those who have been
subject to racial or ethnic prejudice or cultural bias because of their
identification as members of certain groups. Black Americans, Native
Americans, Hispanic Americans, Asian-Pacific Americans and Asian-Indian
Americans have been officially designated as socially disadvantaged.
Members of other groups must show proof of their socially disadvantaged
status.

 **"Economically disadvantaged"** individuals are socially
disadvantaged individuals (as defined above) whose ability to compete in
the free enterprise system has been impaired due to diminished capital
and credit opportunities. Economically disadvantaged must be established
for all applicants. The SBA determines eligibility on a case-by-case
basis.

All applications for the 8(a) Program must be made directly to the SBA.
If you are interested in the program, contact your nearest SBA office or
a HUD Business Utilization Development Specialist (see Appendix II).

**Women-Owned Small Business Program** (see also FAR Subpart 19.9)

Executive Order 12138 ("National Women's Business Enterprise Policy")
directs all Federal agencies to take action to strengthen women-owned
business enterprise and to ensure full participation by women in the
free enterprise system. The Executive Order does not permit HUD to
set-aside procurements for women-owned businesses. HUD makes special
efforts, though, to advise women business owners of

contracting opportunities and to encourage their participation in HUD
procurements. The FAR requires Federal agencies to actively encourage
their prime contractors to use women-owned small businesses as
subcontractors. All contracts valued at \$100,000 or more include a
clause, which requires the prime contractor to provide the maximum
practicable opportunity to women-owned small businesses to compete for
subcontracts.

A women-owned small business concern is defined as at least 51 percent
owned by one or more women, or in the case of publicly owned businesses,
at least 51 percent of the stock is owned by one or more women, and the
management and daily operations of which are controlled by one or more
women.

**Small Disadvantaged Business Participation Program** (See FAR Subparts
19.11 and 19.12)

HUD also encourages the award of prime contracts valued at \$100,000 or
more to small disadvantaged business (SDB) concerns (other than
certified 8(a) firms) that are at least 51 percent owned and controlled
by socially and economically disadvantaged individuals. As a means of
ensuring SDBs the maximum practicable opportunity to compete for and
receive Federal contracts, small businesses certified as SDBs can
receive a price preference (currently 10%) or evaluation credit when
competing for certain procurements. The Department of Commerce
determines which industrial categories are eligible for the SDB contract
price preference and evaluation credits. Businesses seeking
certification, as SDBs, should contact the SBA for more information.

**Historically Underutilized Business Zone** **(HUBZone) Program** (See
FAR Subpart 19.13)

Created by the HUBZone Act of 1997, Title VI of Public Law 105135, this
program provides Federal contracting opportunities for certain qualified
small business concerns located in economically distressed communities.
The goal of the HUBZone Program is to provide federal contracting
assistance for qualified small business concerns located in HUBZone
areas in order to increase employment opportunities, stimulate capital
investments in those areas, and empower communities through economic
leveraging. HUBZone areas are determined by various census data. To
qualify as a HUBZone business, the business must be small, owned by a US
citizen and have its principal office located in a HUBZone. At least 35%
of the employees must reside in a HUBZone. The SBA formally certifies
firms as HUBZone businesses. HUBZone businesses can receive sole-source
or set-aside federal contracts, or receive a price preference up to 10%
when competing for full and open competition procurements. In addition
to the Government-wide prime contracting goals established by the SBA,
HUD establishes annual goals for subcontracting with HUBZone businesses.

**Veteran-Owned Small Business Program**

In accordance with Title V of Public Law 106-50, the Veterans
Entrepreneurship and Small Business Development Act of 1999, HUD
establishes annual Departmental goals for prime contracts with small
businesses owned and controlled by service-disabled veterans. HUD also
establishes annual goals for subcontracting by its prime contractors
with veteran-owned and service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses.

**Minority Business Enterprise (MBE) Programs**

In accordance with Executive Orders 12432, "Minority Business Enterprise
Development," and 11625, "National Program for Minority Business
Enterprise," OSDBU is charged with overseeing the implementation of
voluntary compliance programs to stimulate MBE participation in
procurement and assistance programs. OSDBU provides advice and
recommendations to the Secretary of HUD on MBE activities, prepares,
monitors and evaluates the Department\'s Annual Minority Business
Development Plan and reports MBE program performance to the Minority
Business Development Agency (MBDA) of the Department of Commerce.

**Minority-Owned Media**

HUD is committed to the use of minority-owned media to the extent
practical and cost effective. The Department buys advertising for HUD\'s
programs (e.g., Fair Housing billboard displays, Housing\'s Real Estate
Owned property sales and Section 202 Housing for the Elderly). The total
expenditures for advertising under these activities and the portion of
total dollars spent with the minority media is reported semi-annually to
OSDBU. OSDBU is responsible for monitoring HUD\'s procurement of
minority media services.

######## Other Sources of Information {#other-sources-of-information .unnumbered}

**Federal Business Opportunities (FedBizOpps)**

FedBizOpps is the single on-line point-of-entry for Federal government
procurement opportunities over \$25,000. Government buyers (e.g., HUD)
are able to publicize their business opportunities by posting
information directly to FedBizOpps via the Internet. Businesses can
search, monitor, and retrieve all Federal contracting opportunities via
a single Internet site. With few exceptions, HUD publishes notices of
upcoming solicitations for new contracts and purchases over \$25,000 in
FedBizOpps. (NOTE: HUD also posts the same opportunities to its own
Contracting Opportunities web page.) HUD also publishes notices of
contract awards that have subcontracting opportunities. FedBizOpps
website address is:

[**http://www.fedbizopps.gov**](http://www.fedbizopps.gov/)

**The U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA)**

The SBA offers a wide variety of services and assistance to small and
small disadvantaged businesses. Government contracting offices work
closely with the SBA in seeking small business suppliers. Local SBA
offices can direct firms to agencies that purchase products they offer.
Also, the SBA can provide names and addresses of prospective military
and civilian agency customers. Information about the SBA\'s programs and
services is readily available from its Internet homepage at:

[**http://www.sba.gov**](http://www.sba.gov/)

The SBA posts small business size standards at:

[**http://www.sba.gov/size/**](http://www.sba.gov/size/)

HUBZone information is available at:

[**http://www.sba.gov/hubzone**](http://www.sba.gov/hubzone)

The SBA also maintains PRO-Net, an online contractor registration that
includes access to FedBizOpps, Federal agency homepages and sources of
procurement opportunities. Participating firms can update their own
profiles, link their homepages to their profiles and receive and ask
questions about procurement opportunities. To register and/or learn more
about PRO-Net, access its Internet site at:

[**http://www.pro-net.sba.gov/**](http://www.pro-net.sba.gov/)

**General Services Administration (GSA) Small Business Centers**

The GSA is the largest civilian Federal agency buyer of general supplies
and services. It provides operational supplies and services to the
civilian Federal agencies through its Federal Supply Service.
Independent contractors furnish most of these supplies and services. The
GSA Small Business Centers provide advice to small businesses about
GSA\'s contracting opportunities. While these opportunities are not
reserved exclusively for small disadvantaged businesses, they represent
an important government resource available to them. Interested business
concerns should contact their local GSA regional or area office for more
information, or visit GSA\'s website at:

[**http://www.gsa.gov/**](http://www.gsa.gov/)

**Federal Supply Schedule (FSS)**

GSA awards contracts for a wide variety of supplies and services. Other
Federal agencies may then order needed supplies and services directly
from those contractors. GSA normally awards multiple contracts for each
category of supplies or services. The FSS homepage is located at:

[**http://www.fss.gsa.gov**](http://www.fss.gsa.gov/)
