Please note that no verbal information will be binding upon the State unless the State issues such information in writing as an official addendum. If the IFB is modified prior to the final bid submission date, the State will issue an addendum to all bidders that received a bid package.

Bidder shall provide rate(s) on Rate Sheet (Exhibit B-1). Bidder shall set forth rates in clear, legible figures in the spaces provided in Exhibit B-1. Failure to provide the required rates shall be cause for rejection of your bid.

NOTE:

1. Any quantities listed on Exhibit B-1 are CDCR’s estimates only and are offered as a basis for the comparison of bids.

2. In the case of a discrepancy between the Unit Price (e.g., Hourly Rate, Cost per

Service) and Item Total (e.g., Hourly Rate x Hours Worked = Item Total), the Unit Price shall prevail. However, if the Unit Price figure is ambiguous, illegible, uncertain, or is omitted, the Item Total shall be divided by the estimated usage (e.g., Hours Worked) to determine the Unit Price.

Additionally, bids may be rejected if the bid proposal shows any alterations of form, additions not called for, a conditioned or incomplete bid, or erasures and/or irregularities of any kind. Any bid amounts changed after the amounts are originally inserted MUST be initialed in ink by the bidder.

XVII. DISABLED VETERAN BUSINESS ENTERPRISE (DVBE) INCENTIVE

CDCR is committed to meeting and exceeding the 3 percent goal for Disabled Veteran Business Enterprise (DVBE) participation in State contracting activities, set forth in Military and Veterans Code 999. The DVBE Incentive Program applies to all contracting activities for services including public works, construction, services, leasing, materials testing, and other related contracts. The DVBE incentive is applied during the evaluation process and is only applied to responsive bids from responsible bidders proposing DVBE participation.

This incentive is for bid computation only.

To be eligible for the DVBE incentive, the business must:

1. Complete DVBE Incentive Request and Subcontractor Acknowledgement form

(OBS 554) and submit with bid proposal.

2. Have a completed DVBE application on file with DGS, OSDS by 5:00 p.m. on the date bids are due.

For certification and preference approval process information, contact the DGS OSDS by telephone at (916) 375-4940 or access the DGS OSDS Internet website at http://www.pd.dgs.ca.gov/dvbe/default.htm

Award Based on Low Price

The incentive shall be equal to a bidder’s DVBE participation level (rounded to the nearest two decimal places).

DVBE PARTICIPATION LEVEL INCENTIVE APPLIED

3.0 UP TO 3.99% 3%

4.0 UP TO 4.99% 4%

5.0 UP TO 5.99% 5%

1. The incentive is subject to a minimum of three percent (3%) and a maximum of five percent (5%) and will not exceed $500,000. Bids with DVBE participation of more than five (5%) percent will be calculated with a five percent (5%) incentive.

2. Bidders with DVBE participation of less than the required percentage listed in the solicitation will be deemed non-responsive and eliminated from any further participation.

3. The Small Business Preference (five percent (5%) up to $50,000) may be combined with the DVBE incentive but will not exceed a combined total of $500,000.

4. The DVBE incentive is computed from the lowest responsive and responsible bid price.

XVIII. SMALL BUSINESS PREFERENCE PROGRAM

Current law encourages state departments to first consider a Small Business (S/B) Enterprise / Microbusiness (M/B) Enterprise for contracting opportunities. CDCR is committed to supporting Small/Micro Business participation in state contracting and seeks to use certified Small/Micro Businesses whenever possible.

A Small/Micro Business enterprise is defined as a business certified by the Department of General Services (DGS), Office of Small Business and Disabled Veteran Business Enterprise Certification Services (OSDS) in which:

1. The principal office is located in California

2. The officers are domiciled in California

3. The business is independently owned and operated

4. The business, with any affiliates, is not dominant in its field of operation; and

a. For Small Business, either:

(1) The business, together with any affiliates, has 100 or fewer employees and averaged annual gross receipts of $14,000,000 or less over the previous three years, or

(2) The business is a manufacturer with 100 or fewer employees

b. For Micro Business, either:

(1) The business, together with any affiliates, has 25 or fewer employees and averaged annual gross receipts of $3,500,000 or less over the previous three years, or

(2) The business is a manufacturer with 25 or fewer employees.

Section 14835, et seq., of the California Government Code requires that a five percent (5%) preference be given to bidders who certify as a Small/Micro Business enterprise.

The rules and regulations of this law are contained in Title 2, California Code of Regulations, Section 1896, et seq. A copy of the regulation is available upon request.

To claim the Small/Micro Business preference, which may not exceed $50,000 for any bid, your firm must:

1. Have a completed application (including proof of annual receipts) on file with the DGS, OSDS, by 5:00 p.m. on the date bids are due, and

2. Receipt of documents verified by such office.

Therefore, if you are a Small/Micro Business, but are not certified, it is to your advantage to become certified. For certification and preference approval process information, contact the OSDS by telephone at (916) 375-4940 or access the OSDS Internet website at www.pd.dgs.ca.gov/smbus/getcertified.htm.

XIX. NON-SMALL BUSINESS PREFERENCE REQUEST

Pursuant to Title 2, CCR Section § 1896, et seq., and GC Section § 14838, et seq., a bid preference of five percent (5%) is available to a responsive non-small business claiming no less than twenty-five percent (25%), Small Business/Micro Business (SB/MB) subcontractor participation with one or more SB/MB enterprises. This preference is considered only if the tentative low bidder is not a certified SB/MB.

In granting the Non-Small Business Preference, no bid price will be reduced by more than $50,000. This preference cost adjustment is for bid evaluation purposes only and does not alter the actual cost offered by the bidder.

A non-small business is defined as a responsive/responsible bidder that is not certified by the DGS OSDS as a SB/MB enterprise.

To be eligible for the non-small business preference, the business prime vendor must complete and submit the Non-Small Business Preference Request and Subcontractor Acknowledgement form (OBS 555) with their bid proposal.

XX. NONPROFIT VETERAN SERVICE AGENCY (NVSA) SMALL BUSINESS

PREFERENCE

Pursuant to Military and Veteran Code Section 999.50 et seq., Nonprofit Veteran Service Agencies (NVSAs) claiming Small/Micro Business preference and verified as such in the relevant category or business type, will be granted a preference of five percent (5%) of the lowest responsive bid, if the lowest responsive bid is submitted by a bidder not certified as a Small/Micro Business.

In granting Small/Micro Business preference to NVSAs, no bid will be reduced by more than $50,000. The preference cost adjustment is for computation purposes only and does not alter the actual cost offered by the bidder.

To be eligible for the NVSA Small/Micro Business Preference, the business concern must:

1. request preference at the time of bid submission, and

2. must possess a valid certification prior to bid submission.

An SB/NVSA is not subject to the same standards as other certified Small/Micro businesses. SB/NVSA standards are identified in Military and Veterans Code Section 999.51(a) (3).

XXI. IDENTIFICATION OF CONTRACTORS, SUBCONTRACTORS, CONSULTANTS:

SMALL/MICRO BUSINESS AND DVBES

CDCR must identify all contractors, subcontractors, and consultants who will provide labor or render services in the performance of this Agreement and further identify whether any of the listed subcontractors and consultants are a certified Small/Micro business, or a certified DVBE. Therefore, the bidder must complete a Bidder Declaration (GSPD-05- 105). If any changes occur in the submitted original GSPD-05-105, the Contractor shall notify the Office of Business Services (OBS), in writing within ten (10) working days of those changes, including any changes to Small/Micro business or DVBE status.

CDCR asks that you encourage any subcontractor(s) and/or consultant(s) not currently certified as a Small/Micro business or DVBE that may meet the certification requirements specified herein to become certified through the DGS, OSDS. Please provide those subcontractor(s)/consultant(s) the OSDS contact and certification information provided above.

If you are a certified Small/Micro business enterprise and fail to complete the Prime Contractor information of the CDCR Bidder Acknowledgement/Certification form (OBS 300), your business shall be classified as a large business, which will preclude your bid from receiving the five percent (5%) Small/Micro business preference and can cause incorrect reporting of Small/Micro business and large business participation by CDCR.

If you are a certified DVBE and fail to specify that information on the CDCR Bidder Acknowledgement/Certification form, (OBS 300) your business shall be classified as a large business, which will preclude your bid from receiving any range of the DVBE incentive and cause incorrect reporting of DVBE participation by CDCR.

XXII. BIDDER PROVIDING FACILITY(IES)

Bidders providing facility(ies) for their services must specify the complete address(es) of the facility(ies) where the services will be performed in the appropriate section on the Bidder Acknowledgement/Certification form (OBS 300) in the spaces provided.

The bidder hereby authorizes the State to insert the bidder’s facility(ies) as listed in the CDCR Bidder Acknowledgement/Certification form (OBS 300) into the contract Exhibit A Scope of Work.
