About this file

This is a procurement initiative letter from the Pennsylvania Department of Conservation and Natural Resources (DCNR), Bureau of Administrative Services, promoting the Commonwealth's Small Business (SB) and Small Diverse Business (SDB) contracting programs. The letter outlines eligibility requirements and encourages qualified vendors to self-certify to participate in state contracting opportunities across goods, services, information technology, and construction categories. The related contract opportunity involves DCNR's Bureau of Forestry, Recreation Section Trail Crew requiring rental services for one 6x4 tandem dump truck. No specific response dates, due dates, site visits, bidders' conferences, award dates, or contract terms are detailed in the provided materials.

To qualify as a Small Business, a vendor must be a for-profit, independently owned United States business that is not dominant in its field, employs no more than 100 full-time equivalent employees, and maintains three-year average gross revenues not exceeding $47 million regardless of business type. Small Diverse Businesses must first self-certify as an SB and then submit current certification from approved third parties to the Department of General Services' Bureau of Diversity, Inclusion, and Small Business Opportunities (BDISBO). The Commonwealth's Small Business Reserve program allows SBs and SDBs to compete for contracts reserved solely for small businesses on a race and gender-neutral basis. Interested vendors are directed to visit https://www.dgs.pa.gov/Small%20Business%20Contracting%20Program/Pages/default.aspx for program overview and self-certification guidance, or contact BDISBO at (717) 783-3119 or gsbdisbo@pa.gov.

BUREAU OF ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES

Rachel Carson State Office Building | P.O. Box 8769 | Harrisburg, PA 17105-8769 | 717.783.3348 | F 717.787.8624 | www.dcnr.pa.gov

Dear Small Business Owner:

The Department of Conservation and Natural Resources is focused on proactively promoting the use of Small and/or Diverse Businesses on eligible solicitations with our agency.

The Department of General Services' Bureau of Diversity, Inclusion, and Small Business Opportunities (BDISBO) has created a process with which eligible vendors can become selfcertified as a Small Business (SB) and verified as a Small Diverse Business (SOB). Once selfcertified, vendors can be considered for contract award opportunities with the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania that are specifically tailored for SBs and SDBs.

These programs allow SBs and SDBs to participate as prime contractors, subcontractors, suppliers, and professional service providers on Commonwealth purchase orders. Opportunities are available with the Commonwealth for goods, services, IT, and construction.

In addition, eligible businesses may compete for contracts reserved solely for small businesses under the Commonwealth's Small Business Reserve program, a race and genderneutral program open to all businesses that are SBs or SDBs.

In order to qualify as a Small Business (SB), a vendor must selfcertify that they meet the following requirements:

• The business must be a forprofit, United States business.

• The business must be independently owned.

• The business may not be dominant in its field of operation.

• The business may not employ more than 100 fulltime equivalent employees.

• The business may not exceed threeyear average gross revenues of $47 million, regardless of business type.

In order to qualify as a Small Diverse Business (SDB), a business must first selfcertify as an SB, then submit current certification from a variety of approved third parties to BDISBO.

For an overview of the program, stepbystep guide on how to selfcertify as a Small Business, and pertinent resources, please visit:

Should your business fall under these requirements, we strongly encourage you to register.

If you have any questions about the program, do not hesitate to contact BDISBO; they are reachable by phone at: (717) 7833119 or by email at: gsbdisbo@pa.gov.

Thank you for your continued support and interest in Commonwealth business opportunities!

Sincerely, Xia Wang Director Bureau of Administrative Services
