  • Concerns about the SEWP VI contract from NASA have risen to a new level. NASA is facing new scrutiny over its decision to change the small business size standard for its SEWP VI governmentwide acquisition contract. Rep. Roger Williams (R-Texas) and Rep. Nick LaLota (R-N.Y.) wrote to NASA Administrator Bill Nelson seeking a staff-level briefing and answers to two specific questions regarding the space agency’s decision to use a revenue-based size standard. The Republican lawmakers said the proposed NAICS code would limit small business’ ability to bid on task orders without compromising their size status. A NASA spokesperson said the agency is reviewing the letter and its goal is to ensure more than 60% of SEWP VI dollars are awarded to small firms.
