So, you’ve been certified as a SBE/DBE and awarded a contract…Now what? 

Once a contract has been awarded, SBE/DBE goals are monitored by OED’s compliance staff to determine whether the SBE/DBE participation dollar amounts, percentages and the committed goal level upon which the contract was awarded are maintained over the term of the contract.

Upon the award of a contract, OED’s compliance staff will arrange a “pre-meeting” with the prime contractor awarded the project and the prime's SBE/DBE subcontractors.  At the pre-meeting, both the primes and SBE/DBE’s are given the forms listed below (along with the EEO forms) to complete during the pre-meeting.  Once all the necessary forms have been completed, they are given to the prime contractor to review and who will then submit all the required paperwork to OED.  The pre-meeting usually takes place before the prime contractor has been issued the Notice to Proceed from Public Works.
