DBE Prime Contractor Sample Clauses

The "DBE Prime Contractor" clause defines the requirements and responsibilities for a Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) that serves as the primary contractor on a project. It typically outlines eligibility criteria for DBE status, documentation needed to verify compliance, and the extent to which the DBE must perform work with its own resources versus subcontracting. For example, the clause may require the DBE prime to self-perform a minimum percentage of the contract value or to report regularly on DBE participation. The core function of this clause is to ensure that DBEs genuinely lead and benefit from the contract, thereby promoting diversity and equal opportunity in public contracting.

DBE Prime Contractor. When a certified DBE firm bids on a contract that contains a DBE goal, the DBE firm is responsible for meeting the goal or making good faith efforts to meet the goal, just like any other bidder. In most cases, a DBE bidder on a contract will meet the DBE goal by virtue of the work it performs on the contract with its own forces. However, all the work that is performed by the DBE bidder and any other DBE subcontractors will count toward the DBE goal. The DBE bidder shall list itself along with any DBE subcontractors, if any, in order to receive credit toward the DBE goal. For example, if the DBE goal is 45% and the DBE bidder will only perform 40% of the contract work, the prime will list itself at 40%, and the additional 5% shall be obtained through additional DBE participation with DBE subcontractors or documented through a good faith effort. DBE prime contractors shall also follow Sections A and B listed under Listing of DBE Subcontractor just as a non-DBE bidder would. The bidder shall submit written documentation for each DBE that will be used to meet the DBE goal of the contract, indicating the bidder’s commitment to use the DBE in the contract. This documentation shall be submitted on the Department’s form titled Letter of Intent. The documentation shall be received in the office of the State Contractor Utilization Engineer or at ▇▇▇@▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇▇ no later than 10:00 a.m. of the sixth calendar day following opening of bids, unless the sixth day falls on an official state holiday. In that situation, it is due in the office of the State Contractor Utilization Engineer no later than 10:00 a.m. on the next official state business day. If the bidder fails to submit the Letter of Intent from each committed DBE to be used toward the DBE goal, or if the form is incomplete (i.e. both signatures are not present), the DBE participation will not count toward meeting the DBE goal. If the lack of this participation drops the commitment below the DBE goal, the Contractor shall submit evidence of good faith efforts, completed in its entirety, to the State Contractor Utilization Engineer or ▇▇▇@▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇▇ no later than 10:00 a.m. on the eighth calendar day following opening of bids, unless the eighth day falls on an official state holiday. In that situation, it is due in the office of the State Contractor Utilization Engineer no later than 10:00 a.m. on the next official state business day.
