About this file

This is a Request for Substitution or Exemption form for the City of Phoenix Public Transit Department's Disadvantaged Business Enterprise - Neutral (DBE-N) Program, used in conjunction with a Worker's Compensation Third Party Administration Claims Management Services contract. The form serves as a formal request mechanism for prime contractors to seek approval from the City's Contract Compliance Section prior to making changes to small business (SB) subcontractor utilization commitments. Contractors may request exemptions to release proposed SB subcontractors, substitute SB subcontractors, change the scope of work performed by SB subcontractors, or reduce the dollar amounts originally proposed for SB subcontractors. The underlying Worker's Compensation TPA Claims Management Services contract is a five-year agreement with a commencement date of July 1, 2027, and contains no options to extend. The agreement will terminate upon the earliest occurrence of reaching the end of the five-year term or termination pursuant to contract provisions.

Any substitution or exemption request requires submission of the completed form to the Contract Compliance Section for advance approval, and no changes to SB participation may be made without authorization. Prime contractors must provide detailed justification for their exemption requests, including documentation of good faith efforts made to identify additional small business participation. The form requires signature by a duly authorized representative of the prime contractor, along with the contractor's name, title, and contact information. Upon review, the Contract Compliance Section documents its decision and specifies the revised small business utilization commitment amount, ensuring accountability and compliance with the city's small business participation requirements throughout contract performance.
