PRIME-SUB_FORM_for_Contractors_rev._01.15.2025_(lock_before_publishing).xls

This is a Prime/Subcontractor Form used by Volusia County, Florida for Invitation for Bid #25-B-09TF related to background screening services. Bidders are required to complete and submit this form to avoid receiving a non-responsive bid designation. The form mandates that all proposed subcontractors be listed with their corresponding disciplines, dollar values, and percentage of work allocation. The prime contractor is responsible for ensuring all subcontractors maintain appropriate licenses, and any subcontractor changes during project completion require prior approval from the County Project Manager. The form is structured to capture the total bid price, prime contractor work allocation, and individual subcontractor allocations across multiple discipline categories, with all dollar amounts and percentages requiring completion in shaded green cells to ensure accurate tracking and compliance with local preference provisions outlined in Section 2.8.D of the solicitation.

The form requires bidders to allocate 100 percent of the total contract value across the prime contractor and all subcontractors, with automatic calculations verifying that allocations total the complete bid amount. Pricing must be entered as dollar values corresponding to the percentage of work each entity will perform, and the form explicitly prohibits the County from allowing changes to total submitted base bid pricing, though clarification regarding subcontractor qualifications may be requested. This procurement mechanism ensures transparency in bid composition and facilitates local preference evaluation by clearly documenting the work distribution between prime and subcontracted entities, which is essential for determining compliance with local business participation requirements and assessing contractor capacity and qualifications for the background screening services contract.
