PSC Z1LB

Set-aside Total Small Business Set-Aside (FAR 19.5)

Scout Score 8

Quick analysis

Total Small Business Set-Aside under NAICS 237310 with a $45M size standard; Trace revenue is ~$49M, indicating Trace is not a small business for this NAICS and is ineligible to prime.

Work scope is parking lot repair (construction), NAICS 237310, classification code Z1LB—outside Trace’s core SATCOM/IT/C5ISR lanes with no relevant past performance cited in the company profile.

LPTA, firm-fixed-price, 60-day POP, magnitude $25k–$100k—low value and minimal strategic relevance for Trace.

Solicitation requires prime’s mobilization point within 120 miles of DSCR and owned by the prime; even if geographic criterion can be met, set-aside ineligibility remains a blocker to priming. Documents (SOW, Wage Determination, SF1442) are unreadable in this package; however, this does not affect the prime ineligibility conclusion.

Dimension scores

Total - 8/100

Technical Fit - 1/20

Solicitation is for DSCR B41 Parking Lot Repair; NAICS 237310 and PSC Z1LB indicate construction/parking lot work, which is outside Trace’s core capabilities (company profile emphasizes SATCOM, CDS, MPE, C5ISR, IT O&M).

Past Performance - 1/20

Company profile lists SATCOM, coalition C2, JADC2, IT O&M, and SE&I past performance; no relevant construction/parking lot repair past performance is cited.

Vehicles / Contract Access - 2/10

Open-market RFQ but restricted by Total Small Business set-aside; Trace cannot prime due to size status and would require a small-business prime to access as a subcontractor.

Competitive Position - 1/15

LPTA construction requirement with local mobilization constraint; Trace lacks differentiators in this domain and is ineligible to prime. Local small construction firms likely hold advantage.

Risk - 3/15

High execution risk relative to Trace capabilities (construction scope outside lanes). Key documents (SOW, Wage Determination, SF1442) unreadable, adding uncertainty. Short 60-day POP and $500/day LDs elevate delivery risk for any role.

Strategic Value - 0/10

Low-value, one-off construction project ($25k–$100k) outside strategic SATCOM/IT lanes; limited to no strategic upside for Trace.

Compliance - 0/10

Total Small Business Set-Aside under NAICS 237310 with size standard $45M; Trace revenue ~$49M—Trace is not small under this NAICS, making it ineligible to prime this RFQ. Geographic mobilization criterion may be met but does not overcome set-aside ineligibility.

Concerns

Set-aside ineligibility to prime due to size standard under NAICS 237310.
Scope misalignment: construction paving/repair outside Trace’s core competencies and delivery infrastructure.
Key attachments unreadable (SOW, Wage Determination, SF1442), limiting clarity on scope, clauses, and pricing inputs.
Short 60-day POP with $500/day liquidated damages increases schedule risk.
LPTA evaluation emphasizes lowest price; minimal room for value differentiation.
Potential bonding, safety, and Davis-Bacon compliance requirements typical of construction may not align with Trace’s standard operations.

Teaming opportunities

Would require a small-business general contractor/paving prime with proven parking lot repair capability near Richmond, VA and an owned mobilization site within 120 miles.
Subcontract role for Trace is unclear/non-value-add given misalignment with construction scope; no obvious technical niche to fill.
Need DBA-compliant labor and construction safety program (OSHA) via teaming partner—Trace does not provide these natively.

Competitive position

None evident due to set-aside ineligibility and technical misalignment.

Bid/No bid factors

Total Small Business Set-Aside with $45M size standard; Trace revenue ~$49M—prime ineligible.
NAICS 237310 construction scope outside Trace’s core lanes.
All key solicitation documents currently unreadable; material details unknown.
LPTA selection for low-dollar construction limits strategic value.
Prime must own mobilization site within 120 miles—favors local small contractors.

Documents

Download all

Attachment 1 - SOW.pdf Download

Restricted: Unreadable

Summary

Attachment 1 - SOW.pdf could not be read in the ingestion step and no substantive content was extracted. The solicitation references this SOW as containing additional work scope and a site map; the PDF must be retrieved and reviewed to capture task-level scope, deliverables, and site-specific constraints required for technical evaluation.

File unreadable: extractor pending, processing_mode=metadata_only, review_status=restricted — no SOW text available for scoring.
Solicitation (opp metadata) references Attachment 1 as the Statement of Work and notes a site map on the last page; SOW likely contains detailed tasks and site boundaries critical for estimating labor/equipment.
Without the SOW, critical items remain unknown for Trace scoring: exact work breakdown, phasing, access/security requirements, required materials/equipment, and any unique technical constraints.
Action required: obtain original PDF from SAM workspace or contracting POC to extract SOW details (site map, mobilization point, hours, staging, safety/OSHA requirements, and any special contract clauses).
Metadata indicates award type and timeline (from solicitation): firm-fixed-price, 60-day period of performance, LPTA evaluation, small-business set-aside — SOW needed to confirm alignment with those constraints.

Attachment 2 - Wage Determination (HWY).pdf Download

Restricted: Unreadable

Summary

This PDF could not be read or extracted; no text content was obtained. Based on the filename, it is likely the Department of Labor wage determination (HWY) applicable to the solicitation, but that inference is unconfirmed because the file is unreadable.

Filename indicates this is a Wage Determination (HWY) attachment—likely a DOL Davis-Bacon wage determination for highway/parking-lot work.
If present, this document would establish prevailing wage rates and fringe benefits for labor categories and directly affect labor cost estimates and compliance for NAICS 237310 (Parking Lot Repair).
Place-of-performance relevance: solicitation references Richmond, VA—wage determination likely keyed to Richmond locality (impacts pricing and subcontractor selection).
Extraction metadata: processing_mode = metadata_only, extractor = pending, review_status = restricted; no substantive content available for review.
Action implication for later scoring: wage determination content (rates, classifications, DBA applicability) is a required compliance input and a potential cost/qualification constraint—need readable copy to finalize risk and compliance assessments.
