H.15.1. Lateral Pool Ramping In accordance with Section G.3.10., Contractors under OASIS SB will be required to recertify their business size standard under their existing NAICS Pool(s). For those OASIS SB Contractors who no longer certify as a small business for their respective Pool(s), the OASIS SB Contractor may elect to be considered for an OASIS SB Pool with a higher size standard if they qualify as a small business for that size standard and were not already included in that Pool.

For example, if Contractor X in OASIS SB Pool 1 ($16.5M size standard) only has a contract in Pool 1 and no longer qualifies as a small business for that Pool after recertification, Contractor X may elect to be considered for Pools 2 through 6 assuming they can qualify as a small business for each of those respective Pools.
