Eligible SDVOBs must submit proof of service (DD214), proof of service-connected disability (DD214 or VA Rating Decision Letter), and proof of business ownership; alternatively, NVBDC certification satisfies the requirement. The state does not recognize federal CVE database or SBA VetCert certifications.

The contract term was 240 calendar days from Notice-to-Proceed with liquidated damages of $1,000 per calendar day for delays beyond substantial completion. A 5% bid guarantee was required, with performance and payment bonds mandated for bids exceeding $50,000. Prevailing wage requirements under Michigan law (2023 PA 10, MCL 408.1101 et seq.) applied. State Project Registration was required for the contractor and subcontractors. Minimum commercial general liability of $1 million per occurrence and builder's risk insurance at 100% replacement cost were mandatory.
