Repetitive acquisitions.

In order for repetitive acquisitions to be awarded through the 8(a) program, there must be separate offers and acceptances. This allows the SBA to determine— (a) Whether the requirement should be a competitive 8(a) award; (b) A nominated 8(a) participant's eligibility, and whether or not it is the same 8(a) participant that performed the previous contract; (c) The effect that contract award would have on the equitable distribution of 8(a) contracts; and (d) Whether the requirement should continue under the 8(a) program.
