About this file
This document is an Addendum to a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) for Architectural and Engineering (A&E) On-Call Quality Assurance and/or Verification (QA/V) services in Districts 1, 2, 3, and 10 for the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans). The addendum provides clarification regarding the submission of Form ADM-0312F, which is used to demonstrate good faith efforts to meet Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) goals. Specifically, it states that a log of communication with DBE firms is sufficient to satisfy the requirement, and it is not necessary to provide full copies of all email correspondence. The addendum also notes that while the ADM-0312F form is not required, it is in the best interest of the proposer to include as much documentation as possible to protect their DBE goal eligibility.
The original RFQ Notice was dated October 28, 2024, and all other terms and conditions remain unchanged. The contact for questions regarding this addendum is VANESSA USANMAZ at Vanessa.Usanmaz@dot.ca.gov.
