ii. In accordance with the California Code of Regulations, title 2, section 1896.6, if, after the application of the small business preference, the bid of the small business is equal to the lowest priced bid from a responsible non-small business, the agreement shall be awarded to the small business.

iii. In all other circumstances a coin toss witnessed by two DSH admin staff shall determine the proposed awardee.

Should a bidder desire to keep any or all components of their response to this IFB confidential, the bidder would need to obtain a protective order from a court of competent jurisdiction.

H. Tax Delinquency Disclaimer:

1. Pursuant to the Public Contract Code section 10295.4, persons or companies identified as the largest tax delinquents by the Franchise Tax Board (FTB) or the California Department of Tax and Fee Administration (CDTFA) are ineligible to enter into any agreement with the state. Any agreement entered into in violation of section

10295.4 is void and unenforceable.

Prior to executing any state agreement or renewal for goods or services, DSH shall verify that the proposed awardee(s) is not on a prohibited list by checking both the FTB and CDTFA websites. The established lists can be found at:

i. FTB: https://www.ftb.ca.gov/about-ftb/newsroom/top-500-past-due-balances/corporate-income-tax-list.html

ii. CDTFA: https://www.cdtfa.ca.gov/taxes-and-fees/top500.htm

V. PREFERENCE AND INCENTIVE PROGRAMS

A. Small Business Preference:

1. In accordance with Government Code section 14838, et seq. and California Code of

Regulations, title 2, section 1896.6, et seq., a five (5) percent preference will be granted to bidders properly certified as a California Small Business (SB), mailto:OLSProtests@dgs.ca.gov https://www.ftb.ca.gov/about-ftb/newsroom/top-500-past-due-balances/corporate-income-tax-list.html https://www.ftb.ca.gov/about-ftb/newsroom/top-500-past-due-balances/corporate-income-tax-list.html https://www.cdtfa.ca.gov/taxes-and-fees/top500.htm

Microbusiness (MB), or Non-Small Business (NSB) with a Small Business subcontracting for a minimum of 25% of the bid amount. A five (5) percent preference will be granted to bidders certified as a Non-Profit Veteran Service Agency in accordance with the Military and Veterans Code sections 999.50 and 999.51.

Applications must be on file at the Office of Small Business and Disabled Veteran

Business Enterprise Services (OSDS) by 5:00 p.m. on bid opening day. SB, MB, or

NSB certification will be verified by DSH. The preference adjustment for awards based on low price cannot exceed $50,000.00.

2. Small Business Preference Example (Single Award):

Bidder A Bidder B Bidder C

Bidder Status NSB NSB w/ 25% SB

Preference Applicable? X X

Original Bid Amount $100,000 $105,000 $102,500

Apparent Low Bid X

Pref. Amount (5% of Low Bidder) $0 $5,000 $5,000

Revised Bid $100,000 $100,000 $97,500

Revised Lowest Bidder X

3. Explanation of Example:

The lowest bidder at the time of bid opening is Bidder A, which is a NSB not claiming a SB subcontracting preference. Since both Bidder B and Bidder C claim a SB Preference, five (5) percent of Bidder A’s bid is subtracted from those of Bidder B and C. In the example above, five (5) percent of $100,000 is $5,000. After applying these preferences, Bidder C’s revised bid ($97,500) is less than the other bids, making them the revised apparent low bidder.

Note: Since the preferences are used only for computation purposes to determine the successful bidder, if an agreement was awarded to Bidder C, it would be at the original $102,500 amount.

B. Disabled Veteran Business Enterprise Program and Incentive:

1. An incentive for bidders who include DVBE participation is available and encouraged for this IFB. For evaluation purposes only, DSH shall apply an incentive to bids that include California certified DVBE participation. The incentive amount will vary in conjunction with the percentage of DVBE participation in accordance with the following formula:

DVBE Incentive Participation DVBE Incentive

5% or Over 5%

4% to 4.99% Inclusive 4%

3% to 3.99% Inclusive 3%

2% to 2.99% Inclusive 2%

1% to 1.99% Inclusive 1%

2. The net bid price of responsive bids with DVBE participation will be reduced (for evaluation purposes only) by the amount of DVBE incentive as applied to the lowest responsive net bid price. If the #1 ranked, responsive and responsible bid is a California certified small business, the only bidders eligible for the incentive will be other California certified small businesses. The incentive adjustment for awards based on low price cannot exceed 5% or $50,000.00, whichever is less, of the #1 ranked net bid price. When used in combination with a Small Business preference adjustment, the cumulative adjustment amount cannot exceed $100,000.00.

3. Information submitted by the bidder to claim the DVBE incentive will be verified by

DSH. Only the DVBEs who shall perform a commercially useful function relevant to the Scope of Work included in this IFB may be used to qualify the bidder for a DVBE incentive. All DVBE bidders and their proposed subcontractors must submit a copy of the DVBE Declarations Form (Std. 843). See Attachment 12.

4. Disabled Veteran Business Enterprise Incentive Example (Single Award):

Bidder A Bidder B Bidder C

Bidder Status NSB NSB w/ 3% DVBE

Incentive Applicable? X X

Original Bid Amount $100,000 $105,000 $102,500

Apparent Low Bid X

Incentive Qualified 3% 5%

Incent. Amount (% of Low Bidder) $0 $3,000 $5,000

Revised Bid $100,000 $102,000 $97,500

5. Explanation of Example:

The lowest bidder at the time of bid opening is Bidder A, which is a NSB not claiming a DVBE subcontracting incentive. Bidder B claims (and qualifies for) a DVBE incentive of three (3) percent. Bidder C is a DVBE, which qualifies them for a five (5) percent incentive. To apply the incentive, three (3) percent of Bidder A’s bid is subtracted from Bidder B’s bid, resulting in a revised bid of $102,000. Five (5) percent of Bidder A’s bid is subtracted from Bidder C’s bid, resulting in a revised bid of $97,500. After applying the incentives, Bidder C’s revised bid ($97,500) is less than the other bids, making them the revised apparent low bidder.

Note: Since the preferences are used only for computation purposes to determine the successful bidder, if an agreement was awarded to Bidder C, it would be at the original $102,500 amount.

C. Calculation of Multiple Preferences:

1. In the event that bidders qualify for the SB preference and/or the DVBE incentive, the SB preference shall be calculated first. In circumstances where DSH will award a single agreement as a result of this solicitation, in accordance with Government Code section 14838, subdivision (g), the DVBE incentive will not be calculated if, after the application of the SB preference, an SB bidder is the apparent low bidder unless another SB bidder is also a DVBE or has subcontracted with DVBE firms.

Note: In accordance with Government Code section 14838, subdivision (g), in the event of a precise tie between a small business or microbusiness, and a disabled veteran-owned small business or microbusiness, the agreement shall be awarded to the disabled veteran-owned small business or microbusiness.
