Bid discounts may be applied as per San Francisco Administrative Code Chapter 14B and Section 2.01 of CMD Attachment 6. The Local Business Enterprise (LBE) subcontracting requirement is 9.00%. The LBE subcontracting requirement can only be met with CMD certified San Francisco Micro and Small-LBEs and SFPUC Micro & Small-LBEs. The LBE subcontracting requirement is less than 20% for the following reason: Due to approximately 25% of the total contract value will be used for purchasing large diameter pipe, appurtenances and specialized equipment; also 40% of the scope of work is specialized including: installation and testing of the automated water recirculation system; installation of corrosion system; structural installation of the surge tower; and installation of large diameter pipe. In addition, constraints such as the location of the work sites (spread across San Joaquin Valley from Tracy to Oakdale) and the construction timeframe (limited to 60-100 days during a yearly water system shut down) reduces the number of subcontractors available to perform work on the contract. Prime and Joint Venture level LBE participation cannot be counted towards meeting any of the LBE subcontracting requirement(s). LBE subcontractors must be certified with CMD in the scope of work they are being listed to perform. All Bidders shall submit documented Good Faith efforts with their Bids as directed on CMD Form 2B, except those who exceed the above-stated subcontracting requirement(s) by at least 35%. Refer to CMD Attachment 6. Failure to comply with Chapter 14B requirements may result in a Bid being deemed non-responsive and ineligible for Contract award.
