SMALL BUSINESS ENTERPRISE PROGRAM. The Agency’s Small Business Enterprise (“SBE”) Program was adopted by Agency Resolution No. 133-2004 on November 16, 2004, as part of the Agency’s Interim Purchasing Policy and Procedures, and may be amended from time to time. The SBE Program provides for first consideration in awarding subcontracts and sub-consulting opportunities to Agency certified local small business enterprises. The SBE Program is designed to help ensure that SBEs have a fair opportunity to compete for and participate in contracts related to Agency- Action Projects and other projects that are subject to the SBE Program. SBEs are divided into three groups: (1) Project Area SBEs, (2) Local SBEs (outside an Agency project or survey area, but within San Francisco), and (3) all other SBEs (outside of San Francisco). If subject to the SBE Program, the Project Sponsor and its Contractors and Employers must make good faith efforts to achieve the goal of 50% SBE participation for professional / personal services, and construction contracts. The SBE Program sets a contracting goal and thus is different from the Employment and Contracting Policy which sets hiring goals. The Project Sponsor’s obligations under the SBE Program will be incorporated into a SBE Agreement (“SBE Agreement”). The Agency Executive Director will review and approve the SBE Agreement on behalf of the Agency. The Agency’s Compliance Officer will ensure compliance with the requirements and will report periodically to the BVHP PAC and the Agency Commission on compliance matters.
