Amendment 3 to Section 7.0 - Attachment D_ HUB Supplemental Vendor Information.pdf

This is an Amendment 3 document to Section 7.0 of a state and local contract opportunity issued by UNC Asheville in North Carolina for Student Life Housekeeping Services under RFP 64-830, with proposals due August 3, 2026. The amendment addresses Historically Underutilized Businesses (HUB) Supplemental Vendor Information requirements, directing bidders to complete and submit the HUB Vendor Information form available through the North Carolina Department of Administration's vendor forms portal.

The amendment reflects significant changes to North Carolina's HUB program resulting from the 2026 Appropriations Act, which repealed G.S. 63A-19, 116D-4, 143-48.4, 143-128.2, 143-128.3, 143-128.4, and 143-131(b) effective immediately. The repeal of the last four statutes removes the statutory authority for local governments to establish HUB goals on building projects, require bidders to make and verify good faith efforts, and report HUB participation to the HUB Office. This eliminates prior HUB compliance obligations that were previously applicable to state and local contract opportunities in North Carolina.
