About this file

This is a Local Business Preference submittal form issued by the City of Austin, Texas, for participation in local procurement solicitations. The form is optional and encourages offerors to certify their status as a local business to potentially receive preference consideration in the award process. The local business preference program applies to the Sodium Bisulfate contract opportunity, which involves the delivery of a 38% sodium bisulfite solution in 330-gallon intermediate bulk containers on an as-needed basis to Austin Water Waste Treatment Plants.

The City of Austin defines a Local Business as any person or corporate entity with headquarters located within the Austin-Round Rock-San Marcos Metropolitan Statistical Area, encompassing Bastrop, Caldwell, Hays, Travis, and Williamson counties. Headquarters is defined as either the location 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. Offerors must certify the physical address of their headquarters and indicate which functions are provided at that location. The City reserves the right to request additional information to verify headquarters location and may withhold preference, disqualify offerors, or void contracts if misrepresentation is discovered. Note that local business preference may not be allowable in solicitations subject to federal funding.

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. If the Offeror is awarded the contract, and the misrepresentation is discovered after contract award, the City reserves the right to void the contract.
