SMALL BUSINESS PREFERENCE PROGRAM

Current law requires state departments to support the success of small businesses, including microbusinesses, in participation in contracting opportunities. CDCR is committed to supporting Small/Micro Business participation in state contracting and seeks to contract with 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 one hundred (100) or fewer employees and averaged annual gross receipts of $16,000,000 or less over the previous three years, or

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

b. For Micro Business, either:

(1) The business, together with any affiliates, has twenty-five (25) or fewer employees and averaged annual gross receipts of $5,000,000 or less over the previous three years, or

(2) The business is a manufacturer with twenty-five (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:

IFB Page 13 of 78

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 Apply for or Re-Apply for Certification as a Small Business and/or Disabled Veteran Business Enterprise.

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.

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).

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

IFB Page 14 of 78 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.

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.
