This file is a Certified Business Enterprise (CBE) Form for California state and local contracting purposes, specifically related to the Microsoft Office Computer Trainings contract opportunity (26-2661). The form serves as a certification exhibit that bidders must complete to demonstrate their CBE status or subcontractor participation. The document is structured as an Excel spreadsheet designed to capture detailed information about the bidder's business classification, ownership structure, and any certified subcontractors being utilized on the project. The form requires bidders to provide comprehensive documentation of their eligibility and certification status as part of their proposal submission for the Microsoft Office Computer Trainings contract.

The CBE Form functions as a compliance and verification tool within California's procurement process, requiring bidders to disclose ownership details, years in business, annual revenues, and the specific roles of any certified subcontractors involved in service delivery. This exhibit is mandatory for bidders seeking to qualify for CBE set-asides or to receive credit for CBE participation in the evaluation of proposals. The form ensures transparency in the certification process and allows the contracting agency to verify that bidders meet California's requirements for certified business enterprises prior to contract award.
