The procurement includes a mandatory 3% Disabled Veteran Business Enterprise (DVBE) participation requirement, with potential additional DVBE incentives ranging from 1-5% based on participation levels. Small businesses can receive a 5% preference in the evaluation process, and the final contract payment may be subject to a $10,000 withhold pending DVBE certification compliance.
