§ 66-228. Subcontracting for master contracts.

(a)

Solicitations where a master contract is intended to be awarded, not subject to sheltering under this article, under which work authorizations or work orders for specific work, tasks or services may be awarded, will not contain a small business goal, but shall require the bidder or proposer to commit to meet the small business goal established for each work authorization or work order issued.

(b)

The goal for individual work authorizations or work orders will be based on the availability of small business firms for the work or service required. The maximum small business goal for any work authorization or work order will be 15 percent.

(c)

At the time of submittal of a proposal or cost estimate for a work authorization or work order, each proposers must submit, as part of their proposal, a subcontractor utilization plan which includes the following:

(1)

Form SB01-Statement of Small Business Participation which identifies all certified small businesses which will be utilized as subcontractors; and

(2)

Form SB03-Letter of Intent signed by the small business subcontractor(s). A small business prime contractor that intends to perform 100 percent of the work or services does not need to include this form.

The subcontractor utilization plan shall reflect the intent of the bidder and small business subcontractor(s) to establish a business relationship as well of the type of work and percentage of work that the small business subcontractor will perform.

(d)

Failure to submit a complete subcontractor utilization plan shall be grounds for disqualification from participation in that work authorization or work order.

(e)

Failure to meet the small business goal established by an executed work authorization or work order may be deemed a material breach of the master contract.
