About this file

This is a Local Business Preference submittal form for the City of Austin related to a Facility Condition Assessments contract opportunity. The City of Austin has established a Local Business Preference Program designed to encourage local businesses to participate in city solicitations and increase opportunities for doing business with the municipality. Participation in this program is optional and not required to submit an offer in response to the solicitation. The form allows qualifying offerors to claim local business status, which may provide preference consideration in the evaluation process, provided the solicitation is not subject to federal funding restrictions that would prohibit such preferences.

To qualify for local business preference, offerors must meet specific criteria regarding their headquarters location within the Austin-Round Rock-San Marcos Metropolitan Statistical Area, encompassing Bastrop, Caldwell, Hays, Travis, and Williamson counties. Eligible entities must certify that their headquarters—defined as either the location of owners or leadership providing direction and management, or the entity's administrative center where important business and operational activities are managed—is located within this Greater Austin area. The City reserves the right to verify headquarters information through various resources and may withhold preference, disqualify offerors, or void contracts if any misrepresentation is discovered. Offerors completing this form must provide their physical headquarters address and certify which functions are provided at that location.

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.
