A Disabled Veteran Business Enterprise (DVBE) participation incentive of three to five percent applies during evaluation.

The draft report is due within ten business days of completing on-site activities, and the final report is due within five business days of receiving the Authority's comments.

Required insurance is $1 million per occurrence for commercial general liability, $1 million for professional liability, and $1 million in employer liability for workers' compensation. The contractor must comply with Executive Order N-6-22 on Russia sanctions and Executive Order N-12-23 on generative artificial intelligence use, and failure to report GenAI utilization potentially results in disqualification.

The total payable is capped at the amount stated on Standard Form 213 (STD 213), with monthly invoicing in arrears within thirty days of work completion.
