FORM C - SELECTED WORK CATEGORIES.pdf

This is Form C - Selected Work Categories, a Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) compliance document used by bidders and proposers to identify and categorize the work they plan to perform or subcontract on a government contract opportunity. The form requires bidders to list specific work categories, assign estimated budget amounts to each category, calculate the percentage of the total estimate allocated to each work category, and provide the total contract value in dollars and as a percentage. The document includes space for up to 13 distinct work categories with corresponding budget allocations and percentage calculations.

The form mandates that bidders provide additional comments and justification for any work categories that do not provide opportunities for DBE participation, particularly when the percentage of contracting allocated to DBE-capable work is insufficient to meet established DBE goals. Bidders are required to submit supporting documentation to substantiate their explanations regarding DBE participation limitations. This form serves as a critical compliance and transparency tool, ensuring that contract opportunities are distributed equitably among disadvantaged business enterprises and that bidders demonstrate good faith efforts to meet DBE participation targets established by the contracting agency.
