LOCAL EMPLOYMENT AND APPRENTICESHIP TRAINING PROGRAM (LEAP):

The Local Employment and Apprenticeship Training Program (LEAP) has been adopted to counteract economic and social ills, which accompany high rates of unemployment within the City of Tacoma. The Tacoma City Council established the mandatory LEAP program for public works contracts pursuant to Ordinance No. 28520. The primary goal is to provide an opportunity for City of Tacoma residents and Tacoma Public Utilities ratepayers to enter apprenticeship programs, acquire skills, and perform work that will provide living wages.

Example LEAP Requirements:

1. Apprentice Utilization Requirement - Prime contractor is required to ensure that 15 percent of the labor hours worked on the project are performed by Apprentices who reside in the Tacoma Public Utilities service area.

2. Local Employment Utilization & additional Apprentice Utilization Requirement – Prime contractor is required to ensure that 15 percent of the labor hours worked on the project are performed by Local Employees (residents of the City of Tacoma or local Economically Distressed Areas), whether or not such person is a WA State-registered apprentice. Also, - Prime contractor is required to ensure that an additional 15 percent of the labor hours worked on the project are performed by Washington State-registered apprentices who reside in the Tacoma Public Utilities Service Area.

3. Washington State Resident Apprentice Utilization Requirement - Prime contractor is required to ensure that 15 percent of the labor hours worked on the project are performed by Washington State-registered apprentices who reside in Washington State.

NOTE: Depending on the number of requirements assigned to this project, the requirements could be satisfied concurrently. For example if the prime contractor utilizes individuals who simultaneously meet more than one assigned requirement, such as an apprentice who resides in the City of Tacoma or in a local economically distressed area, then the hours worked by that individual will be applied toward both requirements.

See City of Tacoma – Local Employment and Apprenticeship Training Program section for additional information and LEAP Requirements.

Effective March 30, 2012, RCW 39.04.380 imposes a reciprocal preference for resident contractors. Any bid received from a non-resident contractor from a state that provides an in-state percentage bidding preference is subject application of a comparable percentage disadvantage.

A non-resident contractor from a state that provides an in-state percentage bidding preference means a contractor that:

1. Is from a state that provides a percentage bid preference to its resident contractors bidding on public works projects, and

2. Does not have a physical office located in Washington at the time of bidding on the City of Tacoma public works project.

The state of residence for a non-resident contractor is the state in which the contractor was incorporated, or if not a corporation, the state in which the contractor’s business entity was formed.

The City of Tacoma will evaluate all non-resident contractors for an out of state bidder preference. If the state of the non-resident contractor provides an in state contractor preference, a comparable percentage disadvantage will be applied to the non-resident contractor’s bid prior to contract award. The responsive and lowest and best responsible bidder after application of any non-resident disadvantage will be awarded the contract.

The reciprocal preference evaluation does not apply to public works procured pursuant to RCW 39.04.155, RCW 39.04.280, federally funded competitive solicitations where such agencies prohibit the application of bid preferences, or any other procurement exempt from competitive bidding.

Bidders must provide the City of Tacoma with their state of incorporation or the state in which the business entity was formed and include whether the bidder has a physical office located in Washington.

The bidder shall submit documentation demonstrating compliance with above criteria on the enclosed State Responsibility and Reciprocal Bidder Information form.

EQUITY IN CONTRACTING (EIC) REQUIREMENTS MEMO

1) EIC Requirements

Minority Business Enterprise (MBE) Requirement

Women Business Enterprise (WBE) Requirement

Small Business Enterprise (SBE) Requirement

20% 8% 11%

2) How to meet the EIC Requirements

• All bidders must complete and submit the EIC Utilization form with their bid. Failure to include the required form will result in the submittal being rejected as non-responsive.

• A contractor who fails to meet the stated EIC requirements will be considered non-responsible. A bidder can meet the EIC Requirements by self-performing, or by finding firms that are certified with the State of Washington’s Office of Minority and Women’s Business Enterprises (OMWBE) to subcontract with.

o Finding OMWBE Certified Firms: EIC Requirements may also be met by using MBEs, WBEs, DBEs or SBEs from the OMWBE certified directory. It is the bidder’s responsibility to ensure that their firm and any identified subcontractors hold the appropriate OMWBE certification(s) at time of bid opening. Note that some firms may be certified in multiple categories.

Certification may be confirmed by contacting the EIC Office at EICOffice@tacoma.gov.

The SBE Requirement may be met only by firms that hold an SBE Certification and/or a DBE Certification.

A list of EIC-eligible companies is available at www.omwbe.wa.gov1 o Self-performing Bidders: Bidders may meet the stated EIC requirements if they are certified as an MBE, WBE, SBE, or DBE by OMWBE at the time of bid opening. Self-performing bidders must still submit the EIC Utilization Form with their bid (See EIC Utilization form for instructions on completing the form as a self-performing bidder)

3) EIC Program Information

As part of the City of Tacoma's ongoing work to address past disparities and to increase the City’s contracting with and utilization of historically underutilized businesses, the Equity in Contracting (EIC) Program places requirements on City contracts for utilization of businesses certified by the Washington State Office of Minority and Women’s Business Enterprises (OMWBE). The EIC Program also provides guidance and technical assistance to Certified Businesses who are interested in providing supplies, services and public works to the City of Tacoma.

• The EIC Program requirements are contained in Tacoma Municipal Code Chapter 1.07.

• The EIC Program Regulations are located on the City of Tacoma website, on the Equity in Contracting

Vendors page (Equity In Contracting Program Regulations - Final.pdf)

INSTRUCTIONS TO BIDDERS FOR COMPLETING THE EQUITY IN

CONTRACTING (EIC) UTILIZATION FORM

Complete Initial Information Section:

1. Enter Bidder firm name

2. Enter Project Title as it appears on the Specification

3. Enter Spec # as it appears on the Specification

4. State the Base Bid, which is the Bidder’s bid amount, plus any alternates, additives, and deductive selected by the City. Do not include sales tax.

Self-Performing Bidders:

Bidders who are themselves Certified Businesses with the Office of Minority & Women’s Business Enterprises (OMWBE) can meet the EIC requirements by self-performance. When a Certified Business is the prime bidder, an adjustment will be made to the EIC

Requirements. In such cases, the self-performing Certified Business can be found to be a responsible bidder even if the bid did not satisfy all three stated EIC Requirements (SBE, MBE and WBE). For example, if a bidder is certified as an MBE and an

SBE, the WBE Requirements may be deemed waived since the Contractor’s self-performance as an MBE and an SBE achieves the total Requirement.

Complete Column “A”: List all Certified Businesses with whom you will execute a subcontract if you are the successful Bidder.

Provide a contact person for the Certified Business and the contact phone number.

Complete Column "B": The stated EIC requirements may be met by the contractor or by identified subcontractors.

All EIC Requirements may be met by using MBEs, WBEs, DBEs or SBEs from the OMWBE certified list (Office of Minority and

Women's Business Enterprises |). It is the bidder’s responsibility to ensure that their firm or identified subcontractors are certified by

OMWBE for the specific categories stated in the EIC requirements and approved by the City of Tacoma EIC Program at the time of bid submittal. Bidders should be aware that firms may be certified in multiple categories by OMWBE. Please check to make certain that the firms you name as meeting the EIC requirements hold the actual certification stated in the requirements. Business certification in specific categories may be verified by contacting the EIC Office*.

Important:

Small Business Enterprise (SBE) Requirement can be fulfilled only by utilizing firms that have the following Washington State Office of Minority and Women’s Business Enterprises (OMWBE) certifications:

• Small Business Enterprise (SBE) Certification

• Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) Certification

Complete Column “C”: Specify the role of each listed Certified Business by checking Subcontractor or Material Supplier. Note:

Each role counts differently towards EIC Utilization Requirements.

• Subcontractor: 100% of subcontract amount counts towards the EIC Utilization Requirement

• Material Supplier: 20% of supply expenditure amount counts towards the EIC Utilization Requirement

• EXAMPLE Material cost = $100,000 equates to ($100,000 X 20%) = $20,000 to be applied towards the EIC Requirements

Provide a description of the scope of work, services, or materials/supplies planned to be provided by each listed Certified Business.

Note: The work description for each Certified Business listed on the EIC Utilization form must match the Certified Business’s

OMWBE Profile. This ensures that the Certified Business is able to perform the work scope or role for which they have been listed.

Complete Column “D”: Enter the subcontract amount for each Certified Business listed. This amount is the price that Bidder and

Certified Business have agreed upon prior to submittal.
