4. The apparent successful Bidder shall, within three (3) business days after notification by the Owner, provide the application for Program Waiver (if Bidder has not met all goals as set out in section 1 above), and any supporting documentation deemed necessary by the owner to demonstrate utilization of good faith efforts to achieve or maximize MBE/WBE/VBE/DOBE firms, participation goal levels as set out in section 1 , which shall serve as an additional condition to the Bidder being found responsible and responsive.

5. The decision of the Owner concerning whether or not a Bidder has satisfactorily demonstrated good faith efforts shall be conclusive and binding upon such Bidder.

6. Where a Bidder proposes to utilize a MBE/WBE/VBE/DOBE firm that has not been certified as such by the City of Indianapolis, Office of Minority & Women Business Development shall submit a completed certification application for such MBE/WBE/VBE/DOBE. The MBE/WBE/VBE/DOBE must become certified by OMWBD to count toward attainment of the MBE/WBE/VBE/DOBE goals for the project.

7. For the purposes of determining the degree of participation for MBE/WBE/VBE/DOBE firms operating as participants in Joint Ventures, as Subcontractors or Suppliers, the following methodology shall be utilized:

A A Joint Venture Bidder consisting of one or more MBE/WBE/VBE/DOBE parties will be credited with MBE/WBE/VBE/DOBE participation on the basis of percentage of the dollar amount of the work to be performed by the MBE/WBE/VBE/DOBE. For example, if such Joint Venture proposes to perform fifty percent (50%) of the dollar amount of the work quoted at $1,000,000 and fifty percent 950%) of the work is to be performed by the MBE/WBE/VBE/DOBE Joint Venture partner, MBE/WBE/VBE/DOBE participation will be credited as twenty-five percent (25%) of the work or $250,000.

B A Bidder will receive sixty percent (60%) toward goal attainment for the use of minority suppliers who are not manufacturers, i.e. where a Bidder

proposes to purchase $10,000 worth of construction materials from a minority Supplier who did not manufacture the materials, $60,000 will be credited toward the Bidder’s minority participation goal. However, where the minority Supplier is the manufacturer of the product supplied, the Bidder will receive MBE/WBE/VBE/DOBE credit of one hundred percent (100%) of the dollar amount of the supply contract.

8. The Owner may, at any time before or after award, require the Bidder/Contractor to submit additional information to the owner regarding MBE, WBE, VBE, OR DOBE certification and utilization. Such information may include but not be limited to: 9i) Copies of all executed agreements for each MBE/WBE/VBE/DOBE enterprise engaged to satisfy the participation goals, showing (ii) the name and address of the

9. Failure to comply with the MBE/WBE/VBE/DOBE provisions of the contract may result in one or more of the following sanctions: cancellation, terminator or suspension of any contracts, or any portion(s) thereof, including but not limited to withholding any progress payment or any other monies payable or due under the contract, and/or inclusion on the Owner’s list of contractors or vendors who are non-responsible due to MBE/WBE/VBE/DOBE violations, meaning Bidder would not be eligible to do work for the Owner for a specified period.

Minority, Women, Veteran or Disability-Owned Business Enterprise Participation Plan for Goods and Services

It is the policy of the Indianapolis Housing Agency (IHA) that Minority Business Enterprises (MBEs), Women Business Enterprises (WBEs), Veteran Business Enterprises (VBEs) and Disability-Owned Business Enterprises (DOBEs) shall have the maximum feasible opportunity to participate in the performance of contracts. Consequently, the Indianapolis Housing Agency, through it’s Board of Commissioners, has established MBE participation goals of 15%, WBE participation goals of 8%, VBE participation goals of 3%, and DOBE participation goals of 1% for its dollars spent on public works, goods, and services.

The Contractor shall include information concerning its MBE, WBE, VBE, and DOBE utilization for this contract on the MBE/WBE/VBE/DOBE Participation Plan form, found on the “Doing Business With IHA” page of the Agency’s website (www.indyhousing.org). To receive credit toward the MBE/WBE/VBE/DOBE goals, all MBE, WBE, VBE, and DOBE suppliers offered for “direct participation” in a contract (e.g. subcontracting) must be certified by the City of Indianapolis, Office of Minority & Women Business Development (OMWBD). Contractors able to offer direct participation in the form of subcontractors must indicate the name of the MBE/WBE/VBE/DOBE firm(s) with which it will work; the contact name and phone number for the firm(s); the service9s) supplied by the firm(s); and the specific dollar amount from this contract that will be directed toward each firm. The evaluation and review of a Contractor’s MBE/WBE/VBE/DOBE participation, including a review of documentation and information submitted, shall be undertaken by IHA.

The Contractor shall maintain adequate records of all relevant data with respect to the utilization and attempted utilization of MBE, WBE, VBE, and DOBE firms and shall provide full access to these records to IHA upon its request to inspect them. IHA may require the Contractor to submit information in addition to the MBE/WBE/VBE/DOBE Participation Plan and/or Application for MBE/WBE/VBE/DOBE Program Waiver regarding MBE/WBE/VBE/DOBE certification and utilization. Such information may include, but is not limited to the following: (1) Copies of all executed agreements for each MBE/WBE/VBE/DOBE engaged to satisfy the participation policies, (2) the name and address of the MBE/WBE/VBE/DOBE, (3) the scope of work to be performed, (4) the dollar value of work to be performed or furnished by each proposed MBE/WBE/VBE/DOBE subcontractor or MBE/WBE/VBE/DOBE joint venture

5

Page 6: INDIANAPOLIS HOUSING AGENCY - IN.gov dec 7.docx · Web viewContractor shall pay its employees under the terms of the Davis Bacon Wage Determination for all employees based on the

partner, (5) acknowledgement and acceptance of the agreement by the MBE/WBE/VBE/DOBE, and (6) monthly utilization payment reports with each monthly application for payment.

While direct participation of MBE/WBE/VBE/DOBE subcontractors is preferred, if it cannot be accomplished for this contract, “indirect participation” may be acceptable. Examples of indirect participation might include the use of common MBE/WBE/VBE/DOBE suppliers (i.e. office suppliers, courier services, shipping services, etc.) contributing to overhead costs or the overall operation of the business. Indirect participation may occur at the local, regional or national level. (Note: For common suppliers located outside of Indiana that are participating in an indirect fashion, please return proof of home state or municipal certification to IHA.)

Any contractor that does not have MBE/WBE/VBE/DOBE direct participation shall submit the Application for MBE/WBE/VBE/DOBE Program Waiver with the reasons for the lack of participation. The application for MBE/WBE/VBE/DOBE program waiver form shall be requested by contacting IHA, Procurement Department, 1919 N. Meridian Street, Indianapolis, IN 46202, via phone at 317-261-7184 or via email at [email protected]. The application shall be submitted as a 72 hour post-bid submittal. The Waiver requires submission of documents showing the good faith efforts that were made by the Contractor for the purpose of attaining MBE/WBE/VBE/DOBE firs as subcontractors or sources of supplies, equipment, and services. The Waiver must be submitted if a contractor does not have any direct or indirect MBE/WBE/VBE/DOBE participation. If a contractor has only indirect participation, then the Waiver must be submitted for the direct participation and the MBE/WBE/VBE/DOBE Participation Plan must be submitted for the indirect participation.

Failure to provide the MBE/WBE/VBE/DOBE Participation Plan or Application for Waiver at the time of submission will result in the disqualification and rejection of the bid/proposal. IHA reserves the right to verify all information included in the MBE/WBE/VBE/DOBE Participation Plan before making final determination of the contractor’s responsiveness and responsibility.

SECTION 3Prospective responders are advised that the project is a “Section 3” covered project and described in 24 CFR 135, which implements Section 3 of the Housing and Urban Development Act of 1968, as amended (“Section T”). Without limitation of any other applicable affirmative action requirements, the successful bidder and any other subcontractor’s, such as, but not limited to, delivery, assembly and provision of raw materials, will also have an obligation to cause the work to be performed, to the greatest extent feasible, by business concerns located in or owned in substantial part by persons residing in the area of the project (i.e., City of Indianapolis), as those terms are defined in the documents. The employment of individuals residing in the communities or neighborhoods in which the project is located is considered as integral part of the Section 3 requirement. Admissions(s) to apprenticeship programs may also be considered as a fulfillment of the Section 3 requirement.

COMPLIANCE WITH E-VERIFY PROGRAMPursuant to IC 22-5-1.7, CONTRACTOR shall enroll in and verify the work eligibility status of all newly hired employees of CONTRACTOR through the E-Verify Program (“Program”).

Page 7: INDIANAPOLIS HOUSING AGENCY - IN.gov dec 7.docx · Web viewContractor shall pay its employees under the terms of the Davis Bacon Wage Determination for all employees based on the

CONTRACTOR is not required to verify the work eligibility status of all newly hired employees through the Program if the Program no longer exists.

CONTRACTOR and its Subcontractors shall not knowingly employ or contract with an unauthorized alien or retain an employee or contract with a person that CONTRACTOR or its Subcontractor subsequently learns is an unauthorized alien. If CONTRACTOR violates this section, OWNER shall require CONTRACTOR to remedy the violation not later than thirty (30) days after OWNER notifies CONTRACTOR. If CONTRACTOR fails to remedy the violation within the thirty (30) day period, OWNER shall terminate the contract for breach of contract. If OWNER terminates the contract, CONTRACTOR shall, in addition to any other contractual remedies, be liable to OWNER for actual damages. There is a rebuttable presumption that CONTRACTOR did not knowingly employ an unauthorized alien if CONTRACTOR verified the work eligibility status of the employee through the Program.

If CONTRACTOR employs or contracts with an unauthorized alien but OWNER determines that terminating the contract would be detrimental to the public interest or public property, OWNER may allow the contract to remain in effect until OWNER procures a new contractor.

CONTRACTOR shall, prior to performing any work, require each Subcontractor to certify to CONTRACTOR that the Subcontractor does not knowingly employ or contract with an unauthorized alien and has enrolled in the Program. CONTRACTOR shall maintain on file a certification from each Subcontractor throughout the duration of the Project. If CONTRACTOR determines that a Subcontractor is in violation of this section, CONTRACTOR may terminate its contract with the Subcontractor for such violation. Such termination may not be considered a breach of contract by CONTRACTOR or the Subcontractor.

SITE INSPECTIONSSite inspections are strongly recommended for each community. The contact for site inspections is Mike Robinson, Facilities Manager. He can be reached at 317-281-0282.
