AI Teaming Agreement Risk Review Playbook

Your firm (prime) is finalizing a teaming agreement with two subcontractors for a $28M GSA OASIS+ task order. One sub brings a unique technical capability; the other is a SDVOSB required for the set-aside credit. The task order is due in 14 days. Legal has flagged 3 provisions in the draft teaming agreement.

You are a federal contracting attorney reviewing a teaming agreement for a GSA OASIS+ task order. I am attaching:

Work only from the attached source files. If a conclusion is not supported, say so.

Produce:
1. Analyze the 3 flagged provisions: what is the specific risk, what is the worst-case scenario if the provision is not changed, and what is the recommended revision?
2. Assess whether the SDVOSB subcontractor arrangement creates an affiliation risk under SBA rules—specifically whether the prime is overly dependent on the SDVOSB for technical performance.
3. Identify any exclusivity provisions that could prevent either party from teaming with competitors on future solicitations and whether they are enforceable.
4. Assess the workshare allocation: is the SDVOSB receiving enough work to avoid an SBA affiliation challenge?
5. Tell me what provisions need to be added to protect the prime's interests if the sub fails to perform or if the team wins but the sub is later found ineligible.

Call out where independent models are likely to disagree, and list follow-up documents a reviewer should request.

What to expect

• 3-provision risk analysis with recommended revisions
• SBA affiliation risk assessment for SDVOSB arrangement
• Exclusivity enforceability analysis
• Workshare allocation compliance check
• Prime protection provisions for sub performance failure or ineligibility
