About this file

This is a Request for Substitution/Exemption form from the City of Phoenix Public Transit Department that outlines the process for contractors to request approval for changes to Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) utilization. The form must be submitted to the City's Compliance Section prior to implementing any modifications to proposed DBE participation. Prime contractors are authorized to request exemptions or substitutions related to DBE subcontractors, including releasing a proposed DBE subcontractor, substituting one DBE subcontractor for another, changing the scope of work for a DBE subcontractor, or reducing the amount originally proposed for DBE participation. The form requires the contractor's authorized representative to provide a summary of good faith efforts undertaken to secure additional DBE participation, supported by relevant documentation. The request is then reviewed and approved or denied by the City's Contract Compliance Specialist, who documents the decision, revised DBE goals, and revised DBE utilization percentages.

The form serves as a critical compliance mechanism for the City of Phoenix's DBE program, which operates under 49 CFR Parts 26 and 23, requiring contractors to demonstrate commitment to small business and minority participation throughout contract performance. No DBE subcontractor may be substituted or terminated, nor may their scope of work be reduced or proposed amount changed without explicit written approval from the Compliance Section. This requirement applies to all contracts subject to the City's Small Business Participation Plan requirements, ensuring ongoing oversight and accountability in DBE utilization from contract initiation through completion.
