**Standard Form 295 Reporting**

## Standard Form 295 Reporting

**Standard Form 295 Reporting**

_**End of the year reports**_ are required from both DoD and civilian agency contractors.  Year-end reports are due by October 30th and cover the government’s fiscal year of October 1st through September 30th.  If your administering agency is DCMA, your DCMA Small Business Specialist will request the SF295 form five (5) days earlier to facilitate the review for accuracy and input of data.
- If you have a mix of DoD and civilian agency contracts, you should complete mid-year SF 295s for your DoD contracts only.

## General Instructions

**General Instructions**

**If you have contracts with more than one federal agency, a separate SF 295 must be completed for **_**each**_** agency covering only **_**that agency’s**_** contracts.  DoD is considered one agency (except for construction contracts you must submit a separate report for each DoD component (AF, Navy, Army).**** **
**Reports are required when due, regardless of whether there has been any subcontracting activity during the reporting period.  **
**Only subcontracts involving performance in the U.S. or its outlying areas should be included in this report.**
**Subcontracts from a corporation, company, or subdivision that is an affiliate are **_**not**_** included in this report. However, any subcontracts your affiliate makes related to these interdivisional transfers should be included. **
**Report only direct subcontracts made by you or your affiliate in (4) above.  Credit **_**cannot**_** be taken for awards made to lower tier subcontractors.**

## BLOCKS 11 through 16

**Blocks 11 through 16 are all subsets of Block 10a, Small Business.**
**Companies should be counted in ALL the blocks that they qualify for even if that means counting them in multiple subsets  (e.g., a WOSB that is also SDB would be counted in SB, SDB and WOSB); **
**For DoD, NASA, and Coast Guard contractors: subcontracts awarded to HBCUs or MIs should be reported in Blocks 10a, 11 and 13.**
**If you do not have a goal in one category, enter “n/a” rather than a zero.  For instance, your contract may have been issued prior to a HUBZone goal being required so you do not have a HUBZone goal in your subcontracting plan and would enter “n/a”.  You would enter a “zero” only if you negotiated a goal of zero with your Contracting Officer.**
