She was 15 years old at the time, and before another year had passed, she developed a prototype. Her first sales came at an industry trade show, and as the orders rolled in, she put her family to work around the kitchen table. The product was a three-and-ahalf inch cleaning kit attached to a belt called, The Whole Kit and Caboodle. Today, Otis Technology employs 150 people at its Lyons Falls plant and the company serves three markets: Military, Law Enforcement and the Commercial Market. When the Joint Munitions and Lethality Life Cycle Management Command (JM&L LCMC) at Picatinny Arsenal had a requirement for a weapons cleaning kit, Otis Technology submitted its bid.

6 The EXPRESS Program utilizes multiple-award Blanket Purchase Agreements (BPA) and is divided into four Domains: Business & Analytical, Logistics, Programmatic, and Technical. Each Task Order is competed among all teams within the appropriate domain. In accordance with the terms and condition of the BPA, the large business BPA Holders under EXPRESS are encouraged to propose a Direct Award to one of their small business team members, essentially providing an informal mentoring program for the Direct Awardee. On EXPRESS, all the small business team members under the BPA Holders have the required General Services Administration (GSA) schedule permitting them to receive a Direct Award. $1Billion for Small Business AMCOM EXPRESS Expanding Small Business Participation Submitted by David Seitz Army Materiel Command The Expedited Professional and Eng i n e e r i n g S u p p o r t S e r v i c e s (EXPRESS) Program provides advisory and assistance service to the U.S. Army Aviation and Missile Life Cycle Management Command (AMCOM) and its customers supporting the Warfighter. EX- PRESS has been and continues to be a very successful part of AMCOM s Small Business Program. Since its inception in April 2005, there have been a total of 290 tasks orders issued on EXPRESS, with 195 task orders (67%) going to small businesses. As of September 30, 2008, a total of $2,574,319,007 was obligated on the EX- PRESS between April 2005 and September 2008, with a total of $1,246,523,934 (48%) successfully obligated to small businesses. There have also been a total of 32 direct awards to small businesses made on EX- PRESS to date for a total of $232,126,757. In the last 12 months, approximately $1 Billion ceiling dollars have been successfully awarded to small businesses. The EXPRESS Program utilizes multiple-award Blanket Purchase Agreements (BPA) and is divided into four Domains: Business & Analytical, Logistics, Programmatic, and Technical. Each Task Order is competed among all teams within the appropriate domain. In accordance with the terms and condition of the BPA, the large business BPA Holders under EXPRESS are encouraged to propose a Direct Award to one of their small business team members, essentially providing an informal mentoring program for the Direct Awardee. On EXPRESS, all the small business team members under the BPA Holders have the required General Services Administration (GSA) schedule permitting them to receive a Direct Award. EXPRESS includes sixteen BPA Holders (prime/team leader) with teaming arrangements that include over 930 individual companies composed of team members and subcontractors representing a vast pool of expertise. In mid December/mid January, AMCOM will be announcing an open season to restructure existing teams for all four Domains. The purpose of this open season is to allow the existing EXPRESS BPA Holders (prime/team leader) to restructure their existing teams by adding new team members and subcontractors, deleting their current team members and subcontractors, changing their current subcontractors to team members, changing their current team members to subcontractors, and/or revising teaming arrangement(s) to enable them to better respond to future EXPRESS task order requirements. EXPRESS currently consists of four large business BPA Holders (prime/team leader) and twelve small business BPA Holders (prime/team leader). Due to required recertifications taken place in April 2008, EX- PRESS now has nine large business BPA Holders (prime/team leader) and seven small business BPA Holders (prime/team leader) making the preponderance of the BPA Holders large businesses. On July 15, 2008, AMCOM synopsized a special 2008 Open Season to add small business BPA Holders (prime/team leader) to enhance small business participation on EXPRESS. AMCOM announced that it intended to award an estimated two additional small business BPAs in Business & Analytical, three additional small business BPAs in Logistics, three additional small business BPAs in Programmatic, and five additional small business BPAs in Technical with one of the five small business BPAs in Technical being reserved for an 8(a). However, AMCOM did state that they reserved the right to vary the number of awards depending on the number of responsive proposals submitted. On September 3, 2008, the Request for Quotations (RFQs) were released to add small business BPA holders to the EX- PRESS Program in all four domains. Respondents were allowed to seek consideration as a prime/team leader in more than one domain. Eligibility to compete for the anticipated BPA awards is limited to those small businesses who hold one of the required General Services Administration (GSA) schedules and who meets the size standards for the NAICS applicable to that schedule identified as primary for the EXPRESS program.
