About this file
This document is a letter from the Pennsylvania Department of Conservation and Natural Resources promoting the Small Business Procurement Initiative. The letter outlines the requirements for a business to qualify as a Small Business (SB) or Small Diverse Business (SDB) and encourages eligible vendors to self-certify through the Department of General Services' Bureau of Diversity, Inclusion, and Small Business Opportunities (BDISBO). Qualifying as an SB or SDB allows businesses to be considered for contract award opportunities with the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, including as prime contractors, subcontractors, suppliers, and professional service providers for goods, services, IT, and construction. The Commonwealth's Small Business Reserve program also allows eligible SBs and SDBs to compete for contracts reserved solely for small businesses.
To qualify as an SB, a business must be a for-profit U.S. business that is independently owned, not dominant in its field, and with no more than 100 full-time employees and $38.5 million in average gross revenues over three years. To qualify as an SDB, a business must first self-certify as an SB and then submit current certification from an approved third party to BDISBO. The letter provides contact information for BDISBO and encourages eligible businesses to register for these programs.

� DEPARTMENT OF CONSERVATION
� AND NATURAL RESOURCES
Dear Small Business Owner:
The Department of Conservation and Natural Resources is focused on proactively promoting the use of Small and/or Diverse Businesses on eligible solicitations with our agency.
The Department of General Services' Bureau of Diversity, Inclusion, and Small Business Opportunities (BDISBO) has created a process with which eligible vendors can become selfcertified as a Small Business (SB) and verified as a Small Diverse Business (SOB). Once selfcertified, vendors can be considered for contract award opportunities with the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania that are specifically tailored for SBs and SDBs.
These programs allow SBs and SDBs to participate as prime contractors, subcontractors, suppliers, and professional service providers on Commonwealth purchase orders. Opportunities are available with the Commonwealth for goods, services, IT, and construction.
In addition, eligible businesses may compete for contracts reserved solely for small businesses under the Commonwealth's Small Business Reserve program, a race and gender-neutral program open to all businesses that are SBs or SDBs.
In order to qualify as a Small Business (SB), a vendor must self-certify that they meet the following requirements:
• The business must be a for-profit, United States business.
• The business must be independently owned.
• The business may not be dominant in its field of operation.
• The business may not employ more than 100 full-time equivalent employees.
• The business may not exceed three-year average gross revenues of $38.5 million, regardless of business type.
In order to qualify as a Small Diverse Business (SDB), a business must first self-certify as an SB, then submit current certification from a variety of approved third parties to BDISBO.

Should your business fall under these requirements, we strongly encourage you to register.
If you have any questions about the program, do not hesitate to contact BDISBO; they are reachable by phone at: (717) 783-3119 or by email at: gs-bdisbo@pa.gov.
Thank you for your continued support and interest in Commonwealth business opportunities!
