SMALL BUSINESSES, MINORITY & WOMEN’S BUSINESS ENTERPRISES (MWBE), AND VETERAN-OWNED

BUSINESS PARTICIPATION

In accordance with the legislative findings and policies set forth in chapter 39.19 RCW, the State of

Washington encourages participation in all of its contracts by firms certified by the Office of Minority and Women’s Business Enterprises (OMWBE). Participation may be on a prime or subcontractor basis.

For information on certification, firms may contact the Washington State Office of Minority and

Women’s Business Enterprises.

RCW 43.60A.200 also encourages the participation of Veteran-Owned Businesses certified by the

Washington State Department of Veterans Affairs (DVA) pursuant to RCW 43.60A.195. For information on certification, firms may contact the Washington State Department of Veteran Affairs.

Additionally, consistent with Department of Enterprise policy, agencies are encouraged to purchase from Washington small businesses, including microbusinesses and minibusinesses.

No minimum level of participation by minority- or women-owned business, Washington small businesses, or Washington State certified veteran-owned businesses is required as a condition for receiving an award. Proposals will not be rejected or deemed non-responsive on that basis. Any applicable affirmative action requirements set forth in federal laws, regulations, or referenced contract provisions shall apply.

For competitive procurements with an estimated total value of $150,000 or less, WDFW shall award to the highest-ranked bidder or proposer that is determined to be responsive and responsible and is a certified small business or veteran-owned business, in accordance with applicable state procurement laws and rules.

http://apps.leg.wa.gov/rcw/default.aspx?cite=39.19 http://omwbe.wa.gov/ http://omwbe.wa.gov/ http://app.leg.wa.gov/rcw/default.aspx?cite=43.60A.195 https://www.dva.wa.gov/veterans-their-families/veteran-owned-businesses

If no certified small business or veteran-owned business submits a responsive and responsible bid or proposal, WDFW shall award in accordance with the solicitation’s evaluation and award methodology, including award to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder for invitations for bids (IFBs) and requests for quotations (RFQs), or to the highest-ranked proposer for requests for proposals (RFPs), consistent with applicable procurement statutes and rules.

Vendors who meet criteria set forth in chapter 39.19 RCW, should complete and submit the Business

Enterprise Certification Form, Attachment [ ].

Note: Small business and veteran-owned business participation requirements apply to all competitive procurements, except to the extent that the use of federal funds if application of this policy would be inconsistent with applicable federal law or would result in the loss or reduction of federal funding.

Complaints Prospective bidders may submit complaints regarding specific procurements to WDFW. The process and requirements for submitting a complaint are outlined in the agency’s formal complaint procedure (PDF).

Debriefs A debrief conference is an opportunity for any vendor who submitted a bid, to meet with the Procurement Coordinator and/or Evaluator(s) to discuss their proposal and evaluation.
