Contract Vehicles

We offer various ways to help you make the contracting process as simple as possible. Read below to learn more:

Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB)

Northport is a verified service-disabled veteran-owned small business (SDVOSB). We believe this program is one of the best mechanisms available to help us simplify the contracting process. Some of its benefits include the following:

Sole source or set-aside contracts are allowed under the SDVOSB procurement program. In accordance with 13 C.F.R. 125.19 and 125.20, contracting officers may award a sole source or set-aside contract to SDVOSBs if certain conditions are met.

Awards can be made to SDVOSBs below the simplified acquisition thresholds. Although not mandatory, contracting officers may set aside requirements at or below the simplified acquisition thresholds for consideration among SDVOSBs using simplified acquisition procedures.

Joint ventures are allowed under the SDVOSB program. In accordance with 13 C.F.R. 125.15(b), SDVOSBs may enter into a joint venture agreement with one or more other small business concerns to perform an SDVO contract. A joint venture of at least one SDVOSB and one or more other business concerns may submit an offer as a small business for a competitive SDVOSB procurement. However, this can only be done if each concern is small under the size standard corresponding to the NAICS code assigned to the contract.
