Exhibit_6_CBE_Form.xlsx

This is a Certified Business Enterprise (CBE) Form submitted in conjunction with a California state and local contract opportunity for the procurement of a Kia Niro Hybrid vehicle. The form serves as documentation to verify a bidder's CBE certification status and compliance with minority and women-owned business enterprise requirements applicable to state and local contracting in California.

The CBE Form contains attestation fields and certification documentation requirements for bidders seeking to qualify for or claim CBE status on this vehicle procurement. The form establishes the bidder's eligibility under California's supplier diversity program, which provides potential scoring advantages or set-aside preferences for certified enterprises. Completion and submission of this exhibit is typically required as part of the bid package to substantiate any claimed CBE status or to document that the bidder does not qualify for such certification. The specific certification categories, ownership documentation requirements, and verification procedures outlined in this exhibit are designed to ensure program integrity and proper allocation of contracting preferences under state policy.
