About this file
This document is a Subcontracting Plan Instructions form issued by The Texas A&M University System for solicitation RFP-01-ESS-26-252, an Environmental Health & Safety Record Management System project. The form establishes the requirements and procedures for vendors responding to this state of Texas contract opportunity. All responding vendors, whether prime contractors or self-performing entities with no subcontractors, must submit a completed subcontracting plan as part of their bid or proposal to be considered responsive. Vendors intending to use subcontractors must demonstrate good faith efforts to recruit certified Veteran Heroes United in Business (VetHUB) vendors, and all subcontractors must be listed in the plan. Self-performing vendors must indicate they will complete the contract with their own resources.
The subcontracting plan is a binding component of the resulting contract, and any changes to listed subcontractors or conversion from self-performing to subcontracted work require formal amendment and agency approval. The VetHUB subcontracting goal for this solicitation is set at 2%. This requirement applies to contracts with an expected value of $100,000 or more when the contracting agency determines that subcontracting opportunities are probable, as mandated by Texas Government Code Chapter 2161, Subchapter F, and 34 Texas Administrative Code Section 20.285. The state agency will not use subcontractors' VetHUB status as a selection criterion for the winning vendor.

Rev. 5/26
State of Texas Subcontracting Plan
When is a subcontracting plan required?
A subcontracting plan is required for state of Texas contracts when the contracting agency has determined that subcontracting opportunities are probable with prospective vendors certified by the Texas Comptroller through the Veteran Heroes United in Business (VetHUB) program, for a contract with an expected value of $100,000 or more. (Texas Government Code Chapter 2161, Subchapter F; 34 Texas Administrative Code Section 20.285.)
When a state agency requires a subcontracting plan as part of the contract solicitation, a bid, proposal, offer or other applicable expression of interest must contain a completed plan to be considered responsive.
Who completes a subcontracting plan?
Every responding vendor — whether a prime contractor or self-performing with no subcontractors — must submit a complete subcontracting plan.
A vendor who intends to use subcontractors must demonstrate their good faith effort to recruit certified VetHUBs, whether or not they ultimately award business to them. A state agency will not use the subcontractors’ VetHUB status to select the winning vendor. All subcontractors must be listed in the subcontracting plan.
A self-performing vendor who will not subcontract any of the work on the contract must indicate that it will complete the con-tract with its own resources and submit the completed subcontracting plan.
Does a subcontracting plan have to be followed?
The subcontracting plan forms part of the contract. Subcontractors may not be dropped or replaced without amending the subcontracting plan with approval by the agency. A self-performing contractor may not use subcontractors without amending the subcontracting plan.
