About this file
This document is a Local Preference Provision notice issued by the City of Long Beach for bids on materials, equipment, supplies, and nonprofessional services. The provision allows Long Beach-based businesses that meet specified criteria to receive a bid price reduction of ten percent solely for the purpose of determining the lowest responsible bid. If a Long Beach business is selected as the winning bidder, payment will be based on the actual bid price rather than the reduced price. The maximum preference award is limited to ten percent, with an absolute cap of ten thousand dollars per bid. The local preference does not apply to purchases funded in whole or in part by tidelands funds, grant funds, or State of California funds, nor does it apply to purchases under City Charter Sections 1801 and 1807 or to public works projects as defined in California Labor Code Section 1720(a).
To qualify for the local preference, bidders must certify their eligibility by providing a current, valid City of Long Beach business license showing a place of business within city limits and a current, valid seller's permit (sales tax permit) showing a place of business within city limits. These required documents must be attached to the bid package along with a signed certification form that confirms the bidder possesses both licenses and meets the eligibility requirements.

ATTENTION LONG BEACH BUSINESS OWNERS:
In order to help support the success of businesses in Long Beach such as yours along with local jobs, the City of Long Beach has a local preference provision.
In bids for materials, equipment, supplies and nonprofessional services, Long Beach-based businesses meeting the criteria set forth below may have their bid price reduced by ten percent solely for the purpose of determining the lowest responsible bid (if selected as the winning bid, you would be paid based upon your actual bid price, not the reduced price).
The maximum preference a bidder may be awarded pursuant to this Section and any other provision of law shall be ten percent (10%). However, in no case shall the maximum preference cost under this Section exceed ten thousand dollars ($10,000.00) for any bid.
The City Purchasing Agent has determined that the local preference is applicable to this Invitation to Bid. (The local preference does not apply to bids for all purchases funded in full or a fraction thereof by any tidelands fund, by any grant funds, nor by any funds received from the State of California. This section shall not apply to purchases made pursuant to Section 1801 and 1807 of the City Charter and to bids for public works, as that term is defined in Section 1720(a) of the California Labor Code.)
If your business qualifies for the local preference, please certify your eligibility by signing on the space provided below and attaching copies of the following documents to your bid package:
1. A current, valid business license from the City of Long Beach showing a place of business within the city limits; and
2. A current, valid seller’s permit (also known as a sales tax permit) showing a place of business within the city limits.
CERTIFICATION
I certify that I possess a current valid City of Long Beach business license and a current valid seller’s permit, both showing a place of businesses in the City of Long Beach, and that I am eligible for the City of Long Beach local preference.
