 WHAT IS DBE?

Te DBE program is dierent than the local M/WBE and HUB programs. It ensures equalopportunity in transportation contracting markets, addresses the eects o discrimination

in transportation contracting, and promotes increased participation in ederally undedcontracts by small, socially and economically disadvantaged businesses, including minority and women owned enterprises. Te statute provides that at least 10% o the amountmade available or any ederal-aid highways, mass transit, and transportation research andtechnology program be expended with certied DBEs.

Federal Regulation, 49 CFR, Part 26, Subpart E, section 26.81 states that each state must implement a “one stop” certifcation process or Disadvantaged Business Enterprises (DBEs). Eachentity receiving Department o ransportation (DO) unds is required to enter into and sign anagreement establishing and supporting a Unifed Certifcation Program (UCP) within the state.

In response to this mandate, six agencies have agreed to perorm the certifcation o DBEs withinthe state o exas under the exas Unifed Certifcation Program (UCP). Te six agencies are:exas Department o ransportation, North Central exas Regional Certifcation Agency, SouthCentral exas Regional Certifcation Agency, City o Houston, City o Austin and the Corpus Christi Regional ransportation Authority.

Once a rm has been certied as a DBE, it shall remain certied or a period o at leastthree years unless and until its certication has been removed or reasons outlined in 49CFR Sec. 26.87.

Capital Metro is earnestly endeavoring to obtain the participation o DBEs by soliciting bidsor Capital Metro requirements. Once certied, our Procurement Department will receiveinormation regarding your rm or sourcing activities.

Prime Contractors

Capital Metro prime contractors are encouraged to subcontract with DBEs. Tis program isalso administered by Capital Metro’s DBE oce.

 All procurements in excess o $25,000 are examined by the DBE oce to determine i DBE

subcontracting goals can be reasonably established. o make this determination, the DBEoce careully examines 2 key elements:

1. Subcontracting opportunities or each procurement; and2. Te number o DBE rms available in each subcontracting category.

I goals are established, potential prime contractors to Capital Metro are expected to maketheir best eort to meet goals (e.g., 25% o the contract price will fow down to DBEs). When addressing DBE goals in bids/proposals, potential contractors are required to comply  with the provisions and instructions set orth in the solicitation.

ComplianceOnce prime contractors commit to meeting DBE subcontracting goals, the DBE oce works with prime contractors to ensure success towards meeting their commitments. Tisinvolves periodic reviews with both the prime and DBE subcontractors. In addition, primecontractors are required to submit a Vendor Payment Report Form with their invoices, whichindicates the level o DBE participation.

PROCUREMENT METHODS

Capital Metro uses a variety o procurement methods. Selecting the correct one is dependenton several actors. One important actor is the estimated price. Items expected to cost less

than $25,000 are purchased via Capital Metro’s “small purchases” method o procurement. Anything in excess o $25,000 is required to be ully and openly competed.

Small Purchases

Purchases under $2,500 single-sourced. I the price oered is determined to be air andreasonable, and the vendor is able to meet delivery and other requirements, no other vendorsare contacted.

Requests or Quotes (RFQs) are used or all purchases expected to cost between $2,500and $25,000. A brie description o the item or service needed is provided to vendors, who provide written quotes to Capital Metro by an established deadline. Vendors are

notied using the online supplier database, DemandStar by Onvia, or Quotewire, whichis a DemandStar service. Capital Metro may add additional vendors to the DemandStar orQuotewire notication list sourced rom the requesting department, the Internet, phonebooks, industry guides, etc.

Large Purchases

Purchases in excess o $25,000 require more sophisticated methods than those used or smallpurchases. Special eorts are made to make the vendor community aware o Capital Metro’srequirements. Capital Metro then generally accepts bids or proposals rom any vendor who wishes to participate in a competition. Solicitations are advertised in newspapers and vendors

are notied using the online supplier database, DemandStar by Onvia.

Te basic types o procurement methods used or large purchases are Invitations or Bids(IFB) and Requests or Proposals (RFP). Generally, goods/commodities are purchased viaIFB, whereas services are generally purchased via RFP. In both cases, Capital Metro providenotice to vendors through DemandStar. Te notice provides a basic description o the itemor services to be purchased and prompts vendors to return the notice to Capital Metro.Te solicitation is developed and includes a detailed purchase description and/or statemento work, contractual terms and conditions, and instructions on how to submit an oer toCapital Metro. Solicitations remain open an adequate amount o time allowing vendorsenough time to respond.

For IFBs, Capital Metro awards contracts to the responsive, responsible bidder oering thelowest price. A bid is responsive i it meets all the material requirements o a solicitation;in other words, the bid submitted by the vendor doesn’t vary rom Capital Metro’s originalrequirement. A bidder is responsible i (s)he/ can demonstrate the capacity and the willingness to perorm (i.e., proper equipment, manpower, nancial resources, technicalexpertise, etc.). o say then that when the IFB method o procurement is used, the “low 

12

Page 15: Vendor Guide - English

8/2/2019 Vendor Guide - English

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/vendor-guide-english 15/20

bidder” always gets an award is incorrect. An award is made to the “low bidder” only i thebidder meets both tests o responsiveness and responsibility.

For RFPs, award is not based on price alone, but other weighted actors o importancespecied in the solicitation. Selection or award is done by an evaluation team that

independently evaluates the proposals submitted.

For each solicitation issued, Capital Metro assigns a Contracts Administrator as primary point o contact to assist vendors. In addition, a conerence is generally scheduled well inadvance o the bid/proposal submission deadline so vendors may obtain clarication romCapital Metro.

 Ater evaluation o all oers, Capital Metro awards a contract. Contracts in excess o $100,000 require approval by Capital Metro’s Board o Directors prior to award.

OTHER PROCUREMENT METHODS

Tere are other inrequently used procurement methods. Tey include sole source, Statemento Qualications (SOQ) or statutory proessional services or disciplines that require State o exas licensing, and emergency procurements.
