Rev. 2/17

HUB Subcontracting Plan (HSP) In accordance with Texas Gov't Code §2161.252, the contracting agency has determined that subcontracting opportunities are probable under this contract. Therefore, all respondents, including State of Texas certified Historically Underutilized Businesses (HUBs) must complete and submit this State of Texas HUB Subcontracting Plan (HSP) with their response to the bid requisition (solicitation).

NOTE: Responses that do not include a completed HSP shall be rejected pursuant to Texas Gov't Code §2161.252(b).

The HUB Program promotes equal business opportunities for economically disadvantaged persons to contract with the State of Texas in accordance with the goals specified in the 2009 State of Texas Disparity Study. The statewide HUB goals defined in 34 Texas Administrative Code (TAC) §20.284 are:

• 11.2 percent for heavy construction other than building contracts,

• 21.1 percent for all building construction, including general contractors and operative builders' contracts,

• 32.9 percent for all special trade construction contracts,

• 23. 7 percent for professional services contracts,

• 26.0 percent for all other services contracts, and

• 21.1 percent for commodities contracts.

- - Agency Special Instructions/Additional Requirements - -

In accordance with 34 TAC §20.285(d)(1)(D)(iii), a respondent (prime contractor) may demonstrate good faith effort to utilize Texas certified HUBs for its subcontracting opportunities if the total value of the respondent's subcontracts with Texas certified HUBs meets or exceeds the statewide HUB goal or the agency specific HUB goal, whichever is higher. When a respondent uses this method to demonstrate good faith effort, the respondent must identify the HUBs with which it will subcontract. If using existing contracts with Texas certified HUBs to satisfy this requirement, only the aggregate percentage of the contracts expected to be subcontracted to HUBs with which the respondent does not have a continuous contract* in place for more than five (5/ years shall qualify for meeting the HUB goal. This limitation is designed to encourage vendor rotation as recommended by the 2009 Texas Disparity Study.

HUB Goal for this solicitation is 21.1 percent for commodities contracts. The following are NIGP Class/Item Codes and descriptions for potential subcontracting opportunities:

065 - 85 Tool Compartment Boxes, Trucks 962 - 46 Installation and Removal Services (Not Otherwise Classified) 962 - 86 Transportation of Goods, Shipping and Handling, and Other Freight Services

Respondents using Method B must provide notice to three (3) or more Texas certified HUBs for each subcontracting opportunity identified in Section 2b. Additionally, two (2) or more trade organizations or development centers in Texas who assist in identifying potential HUBs must also be notified. This notification must be done at least seven (7) working days prior to submitting your bid response to the contracting agency to allow time for the potential subcontractor to respond. The email logs should be submitted with the HSP paperwork as documentation.

**Please note: The initial day the subcontracting opportunity notice is senUprovided to the HUBs and to the trade organizations or development centers is considered to be "day zero" and does not count as one of the seven (7) working days.
