About this file

This is a Local Business Preference submittal form for the City of Austin related to a plasma cutting and welding filter plates contract for Austin Water. The form is optional and designed to encourage local businesses to participate in City of Austin solicitations. Offerors who meet the defined criteria are encouraged to complete and submit the form with their offer, though participation is not required to respond to the solicitation.

The Local Business Preference Program defines a Local Business as any person or corporate entity with headquarters located within the Austin-Round Rock-San Marcos Metropolitan Statistical Area, encompassing all areas within Bastrop, Caldwell, Hays, Travis, and Williamson counties, commonly referred to as "Greater Austin." 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. The City of Austin reserves the right to request additional information to confirm an offeror's headquarters location and may withhold any available preference if information is found to be incorrect. If the City determines an error was intentional, it may disqualify the offeror from the resulting contract as non-responsible, or void the contract if the misrepresentation is discovered after award. The certification form requires offerors to provide their headquarters physical address and indicate which functions are provided at that location, checking at least one category regarding owners/leadership location or administrative center location.
