Exhibit_6_CBE_Form.xlsx

This is a Certified Business Enterprise (CBE) Form that serves as a compliance exhibit for a California state and local contract opportunity regarding Blancco Software Renewal - Brand Specific. The form functions as a certification document to verify a bidder's CBE status and eligibility participation in the procurement process. The document establishes the framework for documenting and validating a contractor's certification credentials, including business ownership, operational control, and compliance with California's small business and disadvantaged business enterprise requirements. The form requires bidders to provide detailed information about their business structure, ownership demographics, and operational history to substantiate their CBE classification and demonstrate their qualifications for contract participation.

The CBE Form serves as a critical set-aside compliance mechanism that supports California's goal of promoting participation by certified businesses in government contracting. Bidders must complete and submit the form as part of their proposal package to verify their eligibility for any applicable small business or disadvantaged business enterprise preferences or requirements associated with the Blancco Software Renewal procurement. The form requires submission of supporting documentation and certification declarations that allow the contracting agency to validate the bidder's claimed status prior to award. Completion and submission of this exhibit is mandatory for bidders seeking to claim CBE preferences or for agencies operating under procurement rules that mandate CBE participation consideration.
