§ 66-229. Subcontracting for other contracts.

(a)

For solicitations where a contract is intended to be awarded based on evaluation criteria and where the scope of work is clearly defined, the city shall determine the small business goal for each solicitation based on the availability of small business for the type of work involved. The maximum small business goal for any such solicitation not subject to sheltering under this article will be 15 percent. The goal shall be applied as a percentage of the total contract value to be assigned to small businesses.

(b)

Any proposal failing to meet the established goal may be deemed non-responsive.

(c)

At proposal submittal, all 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 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 bid.
