Total Small Business Set-Aside (FAR 19.5)
Notice ID:1232SA26SS1174122

A Sources Sought notice is issued for market research only—not a solicitation—and no award will be made based on responses. The Government seeks capability information from qualified small businesses to determine whether a set-aside is possible for operating a winter nursery in Puerto Rico. This nursery will support the USDA ARS dry bean breeding program by advancing roughly 500 to 800 seed entries shipped from East Lansing, MI, and must be planted by December 2026. The service includes maintaining 10-foot rows with adequate water, fertilizer, and weed control, then bulk harvesting and shipping the seed back to East Lansing by April 2027. Interested vendors must submit a capability statement demonstrating relevant experience and business size status; no pricing information should be included.
