4.2 Prices shall be entered on and in accordance with the bid form.

4.3 Successful bidder(s) shall furnish all required bonds, certificates of insurance and required endorsements on City approved forms included in this bid package within fifteen (15) days of notice of the award. Any other forms are not acceptable and will not be approved by the City Attorney’s

City a list of all subcontractors who will be performing work on the project. Such list shall be accompanied by an experience statement with pertinent information as to similar projects and other evidence of experience and qualifications of each such subcontractor, person and organization.

Subsection A.7 MINORITY AND WOMAN OWNED BUSINESS PROGRAM

The City of Hampton (“COH”) is implementing new strategies to solicit and utilize minority and woman-owned businesses. To encourage and sustain utilization of minority and woman owned businesses, subcontracting goals have been established for City contracts of $100,000 and above. The minority and woman-owned subcontracting goals are established by business categories.

The subcontracting goals established for this Contract include:

Minorities (MBE) 4.34% Non-minority women (WBE) 3.82%

Solicitation meetings will be held on contracts $100,000 and above to assist in attaining the contract minority and woman owned business goals.

The CITY requires that each minority and woman-owned business become a certified Small, Woman and

Minority owned business (SWAM) by the Virginia Department of Small Business and Supplier Diversity

(SBSD).

Any minority or woman-owned business that is not a certified SWAM vendor will not be considered for meeting the Contract goals as established.

Prime Contract solicitations require bidders to include, as part of their proposal or bid, a subcontracting plan to include certified minority and woman-owned vendors during the course of the contract work.

• A listing of all certified minority and woman-owned subcontractor vendors

• The dollar value of each subcontract

• A description of type of work to be performed under each contract

• SWAM certification number and contact information for each minority and woman-owned firm

Prime Contractor subcontractor/supplier solicitation information will be submitted to document firms contacted for quotes.

Prime Contractor solicitations and resulting contracts will require each successful bidder to report actual subcontract payments quarterly the Procurement Department to ensure accurate utilization records.

Prime Contractors are to submit quarterly sub-contractor payment information on all certified minority and woman-owned vendors no less than quarterly after the Notice to Proceed (NTP) is issued by the

Public Works Department.

Failure of a Prime Contractor to submit required documentation to the CITY can result in the withholding of a payment and/or other sanctions imposed by the CITY.

All bids submitted must include a subcontracting plan to be considered when determining the lowest responsible and responsive bidders by the CITY.

Changes to the subcontracting plan will require approval from the Procurement Office and Minority Business

Program Office during the life of the contract.

Failure of a contractor to adhere to its subcontracting plan may under certain circumstances, result in future loss of contracts and/or debarment from bidding by the CITY.

In these cases contractors will be requested to submit documentation of good faith efforts used to meet their subcontracting plan. Determination of efforts will be made on an individual contract basis. It is recommended that contractors pre-qualify or determine the subcontractors’ capabilities prior to subletting work.

Good Faith efforts are documented reasonable steps taken to achieve a Contract goal. These efforts are those taken by a bidder actively and aggressively trying to obtain the established goal. Mere pro forma efforts are not good faith efforts. It is not intended to be a mandatory checklist nor is it intended to be exclusive or exhaustive.

Other factors or types of efforts may be relevant in appropriate cases. The following is a list of types of actions which are considered good faith efforts:

• Soliciting through reasonable and available means (pre-bid meetings, advertisements, phone calls, community organizations, etc.)

• Selecting portions of the work to be subcontracted out to increase the likelihood that a Contract goal can be achieved.

• Providing interested firms with information necessary to respond in a timely manner to a request for solicitation

• Effectively using the services of available minority and woman-owned organizations, local, state and federal small business assistance offices, etc.

Documentation of such efforts can include a listing of M/WBE firm names, contact information, description of information provided and dates received quotes, etc.

(Please note: this requirement should not be construed as authorizing or directing the exclusion of non-SWAM owned businesses; rather, the purpose is to include as many qualified businesses as possible).

Any Prime Contractor that is a SBSD certified minority or woman-owned vendor that is awarded a contract of

$100,000 and above is not required to submit the above information as the Prime Contractor is itself such a certified business. This does not, however, relieve such a Prime from the obligation to achieve both Contract goals during the life of the Contract. The CITY reserves the right to review subcontracting plans and good faith efforts to ensure that both goals are achieved.

The CITY will utilize a performance evaluation process that will include documenting the quality of work and business practices of all vendors used on CITY contracts of $100,000 and above.

The suggested forms are attached for use by bidders to ensure consistent submission of required data.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ’s) - MBE & WBE Goals

1. How do I know if there is a goal on a project?

It will be mentioned in the ITB (Invitation to Bid) or RFP (Request for Proposal). Bidders are encouraged to utilize certified SWaM vendors towards their efforts in meeting the MBE and WBE goals.

2. What is a SWaM vendor?

SWaM is the acronym for Small, Women and Minority owned businesses. A SWaM vendor is a business that has been certified by the Virginia Department of Small Business and Supplier Diversity (SBSD) and is listed in the SWaM Vendor Directory.

3. Where can I find a list of SWaM certified MBE and WBE businesses?

A list of certified SWaM businesses can be found at the following websites:

o City of Hampton Small Business Directory: http://hamptonpublic.hampton.gov/swam/search.aspx allows searches by SWaM type, city location and description of work.

o Virginia Department of Small Business and Supplier Diversity www.sbsd.virginia.gov

The SBSD website allows searches by company name, SWaM type, NIGP commodity code or description and Zip & NIGP Code.

4. Is it possible to meet both the MBE and WBE goals utilizing one contractor?

No. It is not possible to meet both the MBE and WBE goals utilizing one contractor. These are two separate goals; one for MBE and one for WBE and are independent of each other.

5. I have worked with a minority owned business in the past, but they are not SWaM certified, can I still use them towards meeting the goal?

No. The CITY requires that each minority and woman-owned business become SWaM certified by SBSD.

Any minority or woman-owned business that is not a certified SWAM vendor will not be considered for meeting the contract goals as established.

6. I am a Minority /Woman Owned Business, but I am not SWaM certified, how do I get certified?

As found on the SBSD website, there are four steps to get certified: Complete an online application, Print out your application, Collect your supporting documentation on the checklist and send the signed application form to the SBSD. Visit their website at www.sbsd.virginia.gov to start the process.

7. I am a SWaM certified minority / woman owned business, do I still need to meet the MBE and WBE goals?

Yes. The CITY encourages all prime contractors bidding on a project to document efforts and meet the goals.

8. Can I utilize vendors certified as a Small Business (S) that I found on the City of Hampton’s Directory or the Virginia Department of Small Business and Supplier Diversity Directory?

You can, but it won’t be counted towards meeting the MBE and WBE goals. To meet the MBE goal a business needs to be certified as a Minority Owned Business Enterprise (M), Minority Owned Small Business Enterprise

(MS). To meet the WBE goal a business needs to be certified as a Woman Owned Business Enterprise (W) or

Woman Owned Small Business Enterprise (WS).
