Deviated Text
This text comes from the Word attachment to class deviation 2026-O0008, not from acquisition.gov. The deviation memo directs contracting officers to use it in place of the codified PGI. The source attachment linked below is authoritative.

Text

(a) Contracts awarded to eligible contractors under this Demonstration Project are counted toward DoD’s small disadvantaged business goal. The contractor must be an eligible contractor when options under the contract are exercised, in order for DoD to continue to receive credit for the contract toward its small disadvantaged business goal.

(b) Contracting officers may exercise the option if the contractor has represented that it is not an eligible contractor; however, the contract will not count toward DoD’s small disadvantaged business goal.
