About this file
This is a Small Business Preference and Certification Request form issued by the State of California for Project No. SSU-IFB-00000805, the International Hall Exterior Stair Replacement. The form must be completed and submitted by bidders requesting a 5% small business preference and must be enclosed with their bid or proposal. Bidders who do not claim the small business preference should not submit this form. The certification must be signed in the same name style as the bidder's Contractors State License Board license, and joint bidders must be jointly licensed and approved in the same form and style as the bid execution. Bidders must also disclose any assistance received in obtaining bonding for the project, including the name and nature of the assisting firm and whether that firm is listed as a subcontractor with an associated percentage of contract work.
The 5% small business preference is applied through one of two methods: either by factoring 5% off a non-small business low bid total (not to exceed $50,000), or by applying the preference to the highest scoring bidder's total score when awards are based on evaluation factors beyond price alone. Small businesses claiming the preference must have their principal place of business in California and maintain a complete application with proof of annual receipts on file with the Small Business & DVBE Services Branch of the California Department of General Services by 5:00 p.m. on the bid opening date. Non-small businesses claiming the preference must commit to subcontract at least 25% of their net bid price to one or more small businesses, provide detailed subcontractor information including names, addresses, phone numbers, scope of work, and dollar amounts, and be determined responsible bidders. Penalties for furnishing incorrect supporting information are specified in California Code of Regulations, Title 2 section 1896.16.
