About this file
This document is a local preference provision notice from the City of Long Beach applicable to competitive bids for materials, equipment, supplies, and nonprofessional services. The notice informs Long Beach-based businesses of their eligibility to receive a bid price reduction for evaluation purposes only.
Qualifying Long Beach-based businesses may have their bid price reduced by ten percent solely for the purpose of determining the lowest responsible bid. The maximum preference awarded cannot exceed ten percent, with a cap of ten thousand dollars ($10,000.00) per bid. The local preference does not apply to purchases funded in full or in part by tidelands funds, grant funds, or State of California funds, nor to purchases made pursuant to City Charter Sections 1801 and 1807, or to public works as defined in California Labor Code Section 1720(a). To claim eligibility, bidders must certify their qualification and submit copies of a current, valid City of Long Beach business license and a current, valid seller's permit (sales tax permit), both showing a place of business within city limits. If selected as the winning bid, payment is based on the bidder's actual bid price, not the reduced evaluation price.

ATTENTION LONG BEACH BUSINESS OWNERS:
In order to help support the success of businesses in Long Beach such as yours along with local jobs, the City of Long Beach has a local preference provision.
In bids for materials, equipment, supplies and nonprofessional services, Long Beach-based businesses meeting the criteria set forth below may have their bid price reduced by ten percent solely for the purpose of determining the lowest responsible bid (if selected as the winning bid, you would be paid based upon your actual bid price, not the reduced price).
The maximum preference a bidder may be awarded pursuant to this Section and any other provision of law shall be ten percent (10%). However, in no case shall the maximum preference cost under this Section exceed ten thousand dollars ($10,000.00) for any bid.
The City Purchasing Agent has determined that the local preference is applicable to this Invitation to Bid. (The local preference does not apply to bids for all purchases funded in full or a fraction thereof by any tidelands fund, by any grant funds, nor by any funds received from the State of California. This section shall not apply to purchases made pursuant to Section 1801 and 1807 of the City Charter and to bids for public works, as that term is defined in Section 1720(a) of the California Labor Code.)
If your business qualifies for the local preference, please certify your eligibility by signing on the space provided below and attaching copies of the following documents to your bid package:
1. A current, valid business license from the City of Long Beach showing a place of business within the city limits; and
2. A current, valid seller’s permit (also known as a sales tax permit) showing a place of business within the city limits.
CERTIFICATION
I certify that I possess a current valid City of Long Beach business license and a current valid seller’s permit, both showing a place of businesses in the City of Long Beach, and that I am eligible for the City of Long Beach local preference.
