About this file

This is a Request for Substitution/Exemption form issued by the City of Phoenix Public Transit Department for managing Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) utilization changes on public transit contracts. The form enables prime contractors to request approval for modifications to their DBE participation commitments, including releasing or substituting DBE subcontractors, changing the scope of work assigned to DBE firms, or reducing amounts originally proposed for DBE participation. All requests must be submitted to the City of Phoenix Public Transit Department Compliance Section at ptdcompliance@phoenix.gov prior to implementation. The form requires contractors to document good faith efforts undertaken to secure continued or replacement DBE participation and mandates authorization by a duly authorized representative of the prime contractor. The City's Contract Compliance Section reviews all requests and may approve changes, revise DBE goals and utilization percentages, and maintain documentation including initial SBPP plans, annual SBPP plans, and certification of final payment records.

The form serves as a compliance mechanism under 49 CFR Part 26 requirements and does not establish pricing, contract amounts, or financial terms. Instead, it functions as an administrative tool for managing deviations from originally proposed DBE utilization goals throughout the contract period. Contractors must demonstrate meaningful engagement with certified DBE firms and justify any reductions in DBE participation through documented outreach efforts. Approval decisions rest with the designated Contract Compliance Specialist, who evaluates requests against the City's DBE participation objectives and regulatory compliance standards.
