About this file
This is a Bidding Preferences and Incentives attachment document for RFP 26-014-280 issued by the State of California Department of Technology, effective October 2, 2026. The document outlines three primary bidding preference and incentive programs that bidders must address in their Phase 1 proposals. Bidders are required to complete all sections and indicate their eligibility status for each program, including the Small Business Preference, the Disabled Veteran Business Enterprise (DVBE) Incentive, and the Target Area Contractor Preference Act (TACPA) Preference. Each section provides multiple options for bidders to declare their certification status, whether pending certification, or their use of certified subcontractors performing commercially useful functions.
For the Small Business Preference, bidders may claim eligibility if they are DGS certified, recently filed for certification, claim the preference while uncertified, or subcontract 25 percent or more of the net bid price to certified small business subcontractors. The DVBE Incentive requires similar declarations, with additional requirements to submit the GSPD 05-105 form and Attachment 10 DVBE Declarations signed by DVBE owners or managers when using DVBE subcontractors. The TACPA Preference requires bidders claiming the preference to submit specific TACPA Preference Request Forms available through the Department of General Services Procurement Division. Bidders may elect not to claim any of these preferences. All supporting documentation and forms are referenced with specific URLs for bidder access and completion.
