This is a Certified Business Enterprise (CBE) form for a brand-specific traffic cabinets three-year agreement procurement in California. The document serves as an exhibit to Request for Bid (RFB) IS_26200578 and is designed to collect information from bidders regarding their CBE status and participation in the contract opportunity. The form establishes the framework for evaluating bidder qualifications and compliance with California's certification requirements for small, minority-owned, women-owned, and disadvantaged business enterprises. The procurement seeks to establish a three-year supply agreement for traffic cabinets from brand-specific manufacturers, with the form functioning as a mandatory submission to verify bidder eligibility and certification status prior to bid evaluation.

The CBE form requires bidders to document their business classification, provide proof of current certification, and disclose any subcontracting arrangements or joint ventures. As a certification exhibit rather than a pricing or scope document, this form does not contain specific pricing terms, line item quantities, or delivery schedules; however, it establishes that participation in the agreement may be contingent upon meeting California's small business and diversity contracting requirements. The form ensures compliance with state procurement policies that prioritize engagement with certified business enterprises and serves as a control mechanism to verify bidder credentials before contract award consideration.
