In such a case, any firm seeking to be awarded the order must be an eligible Program Participant on the initial date specified for receipt of offers contained in the order solicitation, or on the date of award of the order if there is no solicitation. If an 8(a) Program Participant is awarded a long-term 8(a) contract (i.e., one with a duration that exceeds five years), the contracting officer must verify in the Dynamic Small Business Search (DSBS) whether the firm continues to be an eligible 8(a) Participant no more than 120 days prior to the end of the fifth year of the contract and no more than 120 days prior to exercising any option. Where the contract holder no longer qualifies as an eligible 8(a) Participant or will cease to qualify as an eligible 8(a) Participant during the 120-day period prior to the end of the fifth year of the contract, the option shall not be exercised.
