About this file

This is a Local Business Preference submittal form for the City of Austin, Texas, relating to an electric protective device contract opportunity with Austin Energy. The form provides instructions for offerors to certify their status as a local business and claim preference consideration. Local businesses are defined as entities with headquarters located within the Austin-Round Rock-San Marcos Metropolitan Statistical Area, encompassing Bastrop, Caldwell, Hays, Travis, and Williamson counties. Headquarters qualification requires documentation that the location serves as either the site where owners or leadership provide direction and management of the entity, or the location of the entity's Administrative Center where most important business and operational activities are managed. Participation in the Local Business Preference Program and completion of the certification form is optional and not required to submit an offer.

The City of Austin reserves the right to request additional information to verify an offeror's headquarters location using resources such as the Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council geographic mapping tool and the Texas Certified Public Accountant Association database. Intentional misrepresentation of headquarters information may result in disqualification of the offeror as non-responsible, withholding of any available preference, or voiding of the contract if the misrepresentation is discovered after contract award. The form requires offerors to provide their physical headquarters address and certify which functions are provided at that location, specifically indicating whether it serves as the location of the entity's owners or leadership or as the entity's Administrative Center.

SUBMITTAL – Local Business Preference

LOCAL BUSINESS PREFERENCE – OPTIONAL

To encourage Local Businesses to participate in City solicitations and to increase the opportunities to do business with the City, the City of Austin maintains a Local Business Preference Procurement or “Local Preference” Program.

Note: Local Business Preference may not be allowable, and will not be provided, in solicitations subject to federal funding.

1 Instructions. Offerors meeting the following criteria (both) are encouraged to complete this form and include it with their Offer. Participation in this program or completion of this form is not required to respond to this solicitation.

A. Local Business. The City defines a Local Business as any person or corporate entity with Headquarters located within the Local Area. The City defines Headquarters as (a) the location of the owners or leadership, where they provide direction and management of the entity, and/or (b) the location of the entity’s Administrative Center, where most of the entity’s important business and operational activities are managed.

B. Local Area. The City defines the Local Area as being within the Austin-Round Rock-San Marcos Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA), including all areas within Bastrop, Caldwell, Hays, Travis and Williamson counties, or “Greater Austin”.

2 Confirmation. The City may request additional information to confirm the Offeror’s Headquarters, including resources like the following (https://geomap.ffiec.gov/ffiecgeomap/) and (https://mycpa.cpa.state.tx.us/coa/).

3 Misrepresentation. If the City determines any of the Offeror’s information regarding their Headquarters is incorrect, the City may withhold any available preference. If the City determines the error was intentional, the City may disqualify the Offeror from any resulting contract as being non-responsible.
