FORM C - SELECTED WORK CATEGORIES.pdf

This document is Form C - Selected Work Categories, a Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) compliance form used by state and local contracting agencies to track subcontracting and work category allocations. The form requires bidders and proposers to identify and categorize the work to be performed, either by the bidder/proposer directly or through subcontractors, with corresponding estimated budget amounts and percentages of the total project estimate. The form includes space for up to thirteen distinct work categories, with each line item requiring the bidder to specify the estimated budget and percentage allocation. A total line consolidates all work categories to equal one hundred percent of the project estimate.

The form requires bidders to provide additional comments and justification for any work categories that do not provide opportunities for DBE participation or when the percentage of contracting is insufficient to meet established DBE goals. Bidders must also provide supporting documentation to substantiate their explanations. This compliance documentation ensures that contractors demonstrate good faith efforts to include disadvantaged business enterprises in project execution and helps agencies monitor adherence to federal and state DBE participation objectives established for public works and service contracts.
