About this file
This is an Equal Business Opportunity (EBO) Determination Letter issued by the City of Tampa, Florida, documenting the participation requirements for Small Local Business Enterprises (SLBEs) in the WW Inventory Panel and Switch contract. The contract is classified as a Traditional Solicitation under the City of Tampa Equal Business Opportunity Ordinance (Tampa Code Chapter 26.5), with a project start date and end date listed as TBD. The estimated contract amount and specific SLBE subcontracting goals are not explicitly stated in the determination letter. The contract was reviewed and approved by Committee Chair Jose A. Valdez, with an effective date of July 2, 2026.
The contract includes a 5% bid discount for certified SLBEs, capped at a maximum discount of $10,000. The determination indicates this is a sheltered market exclusively for SLBEs, meaning the solicitation is restricted to small local businesses. The scope of work did not meet the parameters for a narrowly tailored requirement under the Restricted with Waiver Authority (RWA) policy, resulting in the application of standard EBO metrics rather than more restrictive narrow tailoring provisions. The letter confirms that all EBO Economic Opportunity participation metrics and goals were reviewed and approved in accordance with established City of Tampa policy.
