PROGRAM
District Modification: Based on the availability analysis conducted for this specific RFQ/P, the District is waiving the entire 25% SLBE/SLRBE requirement. The minimum local business utilization requirement of 50% is still applicable for this RFQ/P and can be met with a 50% LBE participation.
The Local Business Utilization Policy 7115 requires that there is a mandatory fifty percent (50%) LBU participation with a 25% or less Local Business (LBE) participation and a 25% or more Small Local or Small Local Resident Business (SLBE/SLRBE) participation for all capital program/construction-related contracts and professional services agreements. See District Modification above.
On April 28, 2021, the Board of Education amended the Local Business Policy which had named the City of Oakland as the singular agency to certify local businesses to include five additional local business certifications. For businesses located in Oakland, Local Business and Small Local Business certifications may also be accepted from the Port of Oakland, Alameda County Transportation Commission, Alameda County Department of General Services, US Department of Transportation California Unified Certification Program, and the California Public Utilities Commission. The District will follow the City of Oakland Small Business size standards in recognizing Small Local and Small Local Resident Businesses.
