Small and Disadvantaged Business Participation (DBE/MBE/WBE/SEE/VOB)

San Diego County is inviting certified small, minority, women, veteran, disabled veteran, and local businesses to participate as subcontractors under the prime contractor’s subcontracting plan obligations. This opportunity is designed to promote the inclusion of disadvantaged and locally owned businesses in county-funded projects, ensuring equitable access to contracting opportunities. Businesses must be properly certified to qualify and will be expected to fulfill specific roles or deliverables as part of a broader contract effort led by a prime contractor. The solicitation is open for responses until July 23, 2026, with no formal solicitation number assigned. While no NAICS code or specific set-aside classification is provided, the focus remains on participation through subcontracting rather than direct prime contracting. Performance is expected to occur in San Diego, California, and interested entities can access additional details and submission instructions through the provided online portal. Participation requires adherence to the prime contractor’s established subcontracting plan and compliance with all applicable certification and reporting requirements.
