About this file

This is a Local Business Preference submittal form for the City of Austin related to an Invitation for Bid (IFB) for industrial gases and cylinders. The form is optional and designed to encourage local businesses to participate in City of Austin solicitations. Eligible offerors—those meeting the definition of a Local Business with headquarters located within the Local Area—are encouraged to complete and submit this form with their bid response, though participation is not required.

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 all areas within Bastrop, Caldwell, Hays, Travis, and Williamson counties, collectively referred to as "Greater Austin." Headquarters are 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 their headquarters address and physical location, and indicate whether their headquarters functions as the location of owners or leadership, the administrative center, or both. The City reserves the right to request additional information to confirm an offeror's headquarters location and may withhold any available preference, disqualify the offeror, or void an awarded contract if misrepresentation of headquarters information is discovered.

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.
