Executive Order N-6-22 – Russia Sanctions: On March 4, 2022, Governor Gavin Newsom issued Executive Order N-6-22 (the EO) regarding Economic Sanctions against Russia and Russian entities and individuals. “Economic Sanctions” refers to sanctions imposed by the U.S. government in response to Russia’s actions in Ukraine, as well as any sanctions imposed under state law. By submitting a bid or proposal, Contractor represents that it is not a target of Economic Sanctions.

Generative Artificial Intelligence: The State of California seeks to realize the potential benefits of GenAI, through the development and deployment of GenAI, while balancing the risks of these technologies.

Bidder/Offer or must notify the State in writing if it: (1) intends to provide GenAI as a deliverable to the State; or (2), intends to utilize GenAI, including GenAI from third parties, to complete all or a portion of any deliverable that materially impacts: (i) functionality of a State system, (ii) risk to the State, or (iii) Contract performance. For avoidance of doubt, the term "materially impacts" shall have the meaning set forth in State Administrative Manual (SAM) 4986.2.

Failure to report GenAI to the State may result in disqualification. The State reserves its right to seek any and all relief it may be entitled to as a result of such non-disclosure.

Upon notification by a Bidder/Offeror of GenAI as required, the state reserves the right to incorporate GenAI Special Provisions into the final contract or reject bids/offers that present an unacceptable level of risk to the state.

Government Code 11549.64 defines “Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI)” as an artificial intelligence system that can generate derived synthetic content, including text, images, video, and audio that emulates the structure and characteristics of the system’s training data.

* For additional details visit the Department of General Services (DGS) website.

2. What is the SB Preference?

a) State law allows certified small business (SB) and microbusiness (MB) firms to receive a 5% bidding preference on applicable state solicitations. The 5% preference is also available for non-certified businesses who subcontract 25% of contract amount with a certified SB/MB.

b) The effect of the preference is to help SBs/MBs be more competitive in the bid process, thereby enhancing state contract awards directly or indirectly to SB/MB. The preference is only used for computation purposes to determine the winning bidder, the contract is awarded at the actual bid amount.

3. In no event shall the SB preference or non-SB subcontracting reference exceed $50,000 in any single bid.

4. How does the 5% Small Business (SB) Preference Work?

a) The following example shows how the 5% preference computation works, and how it is used to determine a successful bidder.

b) Computation Method for example 4-a:

1. Five percent is applied to the lowest (non-certified small business) responsible bid ([Bidder 2] $28,975 x .05 = $1448.75).

2. The preference amount ($1,448.75) is subtracted from the certified small business (Bidder 4’s) bid amount ($29,870 - $1,448.75 = $28,421.25).

3. Bidder 4’s computed total is $28,421.25, making them the lowest bidder.

4. The contract is awarded to Bidder 4 for $29,870.

c) NOTE: The 5% SB preference is applied to currently certified and registered small businesses and is used for bid evaluation purposes and does not alter the bid's actual amount.

5. Documentation

a) Bidders must provide a printout from the State's SB/DVBE vendor system showing your certification and expiration date from the following web site. www.Caleprocure.ca.gov

c) At completion of peformance and when SB participation was included toward SB goals under this contract, then the contractor must complete and submit form DPR 489 to the State's designated representative under this contract and within the time specified within the contracting documents or within 60 days of receipt of final payment, which ever is sooner.

DISABLED VETERAN BUSINESS ENTERPRISE (DVBE)

DVBE Documentation Checklist

1. The State of California acknowledges the service and sacrifice of its disabled veterans, in part, through the “Disabled Veteran Business Enterprise (DVBE) Participation Program.” As mandated bylaw, state agencies have a goal to award at least 3% of their annual contract dollars to certifiedDVBE’s.

2. When a firm bids on a state DPR contract that contains DVBE participation, the firm may benefit from the DVBE Incentive program. We encourage all suppliers to obtain as much DVBE participation as possible.

3. INCOMPLETE DOCUMENTATION (GSPD 05-105 AND DGS PD 843) MUST RESULT IN

DISQUALIFICATION FROM FURTHER PARTICIPATION IN THE SELECTION PROCESS FOR

THE CONTRACT.

4. The following checklist is provided to assist bidders with their DVBE participation documentation:

All DVBE participation is indicated.

The names of each participating DVBE company is listed with the dollar value and applied percentage of the bid.

A copy of the printout from eProcurement system showing the company’s DVBE certification status.

The DVBE participation percentage listed agrees with the dollar value claimed.

A completed and signed DGS PD 843 is included with the bid for every DVBE (whether prime contractor or subcontractor) included.
