2-Attachment No. 3 Small Business Unavailability Certificate.pdf

This document is Attachment No. 3, a Small Business Unavailability Certificate form that appears to be part of a larger procurement solicitation package from a government agency or jurisdiction, though the specific agency is not identified in this attachment. The form is designed to document contractors' efforts to engage small businesses for materials or services on a project when they are unable to include small business participation in their proposal. The certificate includes fields for recording the date contacted, small business name, telephone number, contact person, materials or services sought, and results of the outreach efforts, with space for up to six small business contacts.

The form serves as a waiver mechanism for small business participation requirements, requiring the bidder's signature and certification that the listed small businesses were either unavailable for the solicitation, unable to prepare a proposal, or submitted proposals that were rejected for stated reasons. This certificate must be submitted with all proposal documents when requesting a waiver of small business participation requirements, as referenced in the Instructions to Proposers. The document indicates this is part of a broader procurement process that includes small business participation goals or requirements, though the specific percentages, contract value, or other financial details are not specified in this attachment.
