NOTICE TO BIDDERS

A-iv to participate in performing contracts let by any Federal agency.

FAR Clause 52.219-9, Small Business Subcontracting Plan, Alternate I, requires that the large business concern who is the successful low bidder on a Federal project with an anticipated award amount exceeding $1 million, is required to submit a subcontracting plan prior to contract award.

The subcontracting plan expresses goals in terms of percentages of total planned subcontracting dollars for the use of small business, veteran-owned small business, service-disabled veteran-owned small business, HUBZone small business, small disadvantaged business, and women-owned small business concerns as subcontractors. If the apparent successful low bidder fails to submit an acceptable subcontracting plan acceptable to the CO within 7 days of bid opening, that bidder may be ineligible for award of the contract.

Prime Contractors, who are large businesses, are encouraged to post sources sought notices at the

Small Business Administration’s Subcontracting Network (SUB-NET) http://web.sba.gov/subnet/ so that small businesses can identify opportunities in their areas of expertise. The use of SUB-Net fulfills the requirements set forth in Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 5.206, Notice of

Subcontracting Opportunities, for contractors and subcontractors to post notices and thereby increase competition for subcontracts.

A list of currently known business concerns owned and controlled by socially and economically disadvantaged individuals and/or women-owned small business concerns that have indicated an interest in participating in highway construction is available at http://www.sam.gov.

See Appendix A for Sample Small Business Subcontracting Plan.

NOTE:

Consider the following FHWA small business goals in development of Subcontracting plans and efforts:

FHWA Small Business Goals (As of FY 2018)

Business Size Goal (%)

SB 41.4%

SDB 5.0%

HUBZone 3.0%

WOSB 5.0%

SDVOSB 3.0%

Insurance requirements - See Subsection 107.05 of the FP-14.

EEBACS -

When directed by the CO, Contractors shall use the Government’s web-based system, Engineer’s

Estimating, Bidding, Award, and Construction System (EEBACS), to prepare all “Inspector’s Daily

Record of Construction Operations” (Contractors Daily Reports) and measurement notes (pay notes).
