3. Crediting of DBE Participation Toward Meeting the Assigned DBE Contract Goal
(a) Crediting of DBE Participation in Bid Submission
Credit toward meeting the assigned DBE contract goal shall be granted only when a listed firm is currently certified by COBID as a DBE. Bidders should not assume that a minority-owned or a woman-owned firm is currently certified by COBID as a DBE firm or that a firm is certified to perform any particular type of work. Bidders are encouraged to verify each DBE firm's certification by:
1) requesting a copy of the DBE certification letter from the committed DBE firm and contacting COBID at 503-986-0075 to confirm the firm's current certification status; or
2) accessing information on certification and the updated Certification Directory of DBEs by going to the COBID website at https://www.oregon4biz.com/How-We-Can-Help/COBID/
For joint ventures, the percentage of DBE participation to be credited toward the assigned DBE contract goal will be determined and approved by ODOT prior to Bid Opening on the basis of information submitted in the joint venture application according to Item No. 6 DBE Participation through Joint Venture.
(b) Crediting of DBE Participation Subsequent to Contract Award
The total dollar value of and the scope of work for the DBE commitment as shown on the DBE COMMITMENT CERTIFICATION AND UTILIZATION FORM shall be credited toward meeting the assigned DBE contract goal, provided the DBE performs a Commercially Useful Function according to 49 CFR 26.55(c)(1).

(c) Crediting of DBE Participation through the Use of DBE Manufacturers
The Bidder may count 100% of its expenditure to a DBE manufacturer. According to 49 CFR 26.55(e)(1)(i), a DBE manufacturer is a firm that operates or maintains a factory or establishment that produces on the premises the materials or supplies obtained by the Contractor.
The Bidder may count 100% of its expenditures for a DBE firm that furnishes and places these materials only if the DBE firm is carrying out its responsibilities by actually performing, managing, and supervising the work involved. The DBE shall negotiate the cost, arrange delivery of, and pay for the materials and supplies required for the work of its contract. Invoices for materials must be invoiced to the DBE firm and not to the Contractor.
(d) Crediting of DBE Participation Through Use of DBE Regular Dealers
The Bidder may count only 60% of the committed amount for the cost of supplies and materials from regular dealers toward meeting the assigned DBE contract goal. According to 49 CFR 26.55(e)(2)(i) a DBE regular dealer owns, operates, or maintains a store, warehouse, or other establishment in which the materials or supplies required for the performance of the Contract are bought, kept in stock, and regularly sold to the public in the usual course of business.
No credit will be granted if the Contractor makes a direct payment to a material supplier. However, it will be permissible for a material supplier to invoice the Contractor and the DBE jointly and be paid by the Contractor making remittance to the DBE firm and material supplier jointly, provided such joint payment arrangements received prior written approval from ODOT.
No credit will be granted if the Contractor deducts from the amounts owed to DBE firms for work performed the costs for: (1) materials and service ordered by the DBE firm and used by the DBE in performing its work, (2) purchase price of supplies or materials acquired from the Contractor by the DBE firm and used by the DBE in performing its work, and (3) cost of equipment leased or rented from the Contractor by the DBE firm and used by the DBE in performing its work. Credit shall be withheld where such costs have been deducted from dollar amounts paid to DBE firms for work performed.
(e) Crediting of DBE Participation through Use of DBE Service Providers
Credit toward meeting the assigned DBE contract goal through use of DBE service providers shall be granted for:
(1) The fees or commissions charged for providing a BONA FIDE service, such as professional, technical, consultant, or managerial services and assistance in the procurement of essential personnel, facilities, equipment, materials, or supplies required for performance of the Contract, provided that the fee or commission is determined by ODOT to be reasonable and not excessive as compared with fees customarily allowed for similar services.
(2) The fees charged for delivery of materials and supplies required on a job site (but not the cost of materials and supplies themselves) when the hauler, trucker, or delivery service is not also the manufacturer of or a regular dealer in the materials or supplies. The fee must be reasonable and not excessive as compared with fees customarily allowed for similar services.
(3) The fees or commissions charged for providing any bonds or insurance specifically required for the performance of the Contract, provided that the fee or commission is determined by ODOT to be reasonable and not excessive as compared with fees customarily allowed for similar services.
(4) The total dollar value of payments to the DBE for which a Commercially Useful Function was performed in delivering a professional, technical and/or expert service.

4. Documentation of Bidders' Proposed DBE Participation
(a) DBE Commitment Certification and Utilization Form
DBE COMMITMENT CERTIFICATION AND UTILIZATION FORM shall become a part of the resulting Contract. This certification and utilization form shall be used to determine the Bidder's responsiveness to the DBE requirements.

The form must be completed and signed by the Bidder's authorized representative. In Part I of the form, the Bidder shall fill in each committed DBE firm and its corresponding type of work, its capacity, and the subcontract amount, expenditure, fee, or commission. Should the Bidder fail to completely fill out, sign, and submit the form with the bid when the assigned DBE contract goal is greater than zero, the Bidder will be considered non-responsive. The Agency will calculate each DBE amount, total the amount to be applied to the assigned DBE contract goal and calculate the DBE commitment as a percentage of the total bid.
(b) DBEs Bidding as Prime Contractors
The requirements of section 4(a) will apply to DBE Bidders for a Contract. In determining whether a DBE Bidder for a Contract has met an assigned DBE contract goal, only the work the DBE has committed with its own forces as well as the work that it has committed to be performed by DBE subcontractors, suppliers, or service providers will be counted.
DBEs bidding as prime Contractors shall complete the DBE COMMITMENT CERTIFICATION AND UTILIZATION FORM indicating the percentage of work to be performed by its own forces as well as the work to be performed by other committed DBEs to meet the assigned DBE contract goal.

If the steps taken are not found satisfactory, the bid will be considered non-responsive to the DBE requirement.
(e) If the low Bidder is determined to be non-responsive, ODOT, before awarding the Contract, will notify the Bidder in writing within 15 Calendar Days of the Bid Opening.
