About this file

The document is an Official Letter of Intent (DMI-40 Form) from the City of Tampa's Equal Business Opportunity Program, designed to support Small Local Business Enterprises (SLBE) in the city's contracting process. The form is a standardized template that requires both the prime contractor and the SLBE subcontractor to provide detailed company information, specify the scope of work or supplies to be provided, and agree on the cost of work. Bidders must submit this letter within ten working days after the notice of intent to award is posted, with failure to do so potentially resulting in bid disqualification or award delays.

The form is part of Tampa's initiative to promote equal business opportunities by ensuring that small local businesses have a fair chance to participate in city contracts. It requires the prime contractor to identify the specific work or items the SLBE will provide, including the corresponding bid line item for unit price bids. The bidder must provide an agreed-upon cost estimate for the SLBE's work, which will be calculated as a percentage of the total city contract amount. Additionally, the prime contractor must submit a copy of the executed subcontract agreement or purchase order to the City of Tampa before the SLBE begins work, ensuring transparency and accountability in the procurement process.
