3-Local Small Business Minority Business Form.pdf

This is a Local Small Business/Minority Business certification form for the Savannah Airport Commission's procurement of four pickup trucks in Georgia. The form requires interested vendors to demonstrate eligibility under the City of Savannah's local small business enterprise (LSBE) program and/or minority business enterprise (MBE) program. Vendors must be located within the geographic boundaries of the City of Savannah to qualify as local entities and must provide a copy of their City of Savannah Business Tax Certificate for LSBE validation. The procurement seeks new pickup trucks of the latest design models equipped with all standard manufacturer equipment that comply with all state and federal safety and emission regulations.

The form requires participating vendors to submit business information including company name, business address, business owner point of contact name, and email address for both LSBE and MBE designations as applicable. Vendors must be registered with the City of Savannah as an LSBE to be considered for this designation and should provide a Minority Business Certificate if pursuing MBE status. This certification process supports the City of Savannah's Savannah First Initiative, which establishes a registry of Savannah-based small businesses eligible to respond to designated procurement opportunities. The form indicates that both LSBE and MBE designations are optional ("Not Applicable" options are provided), allowing vendors to apply for one, both, or neither classification depending on their business structure and eligibility.
