In developing an SDB participation evaluation factor or subfactor for the solicitation, agencies may consider-
(a) The extent to which SDB concerns are specifically identified;
(b) The extent of commitment to use SDB concerns (for example, enforceable commitments are to be weighted more heavily than non-enforceable ones);
(c) The complexity and variety of the work SDB concerns are to perform;
(d) The realism of the proposal;
(e) Past performance of offerors in complying with subcontracting plan goals for SDB concerns and monetary targets for SDB participation; and
(f) The extent of participation of SDB concerns in terms of the value of the total acquisition.
