Small Business or DVBE Participation Incentive Partner

The contract seeks a CA-certified Small Business or Disadvantaged Voice Business Enterprise as a subcontractor to support the prime contractor in meeting state-mandated participation goals, which in turn enables the prime to qualify for a 5% price evaluation incentive. The subcontractor must be properly certified under California’s programs and will partner with the prime to fulfill obligations tied to the NAICS code 561612, which pertains to investigation and security services. This engagement is not a direct procurement but rather a strategic collaboration designed to promote inclusive economic participation while providing a financial advantage to the prime contractor. The opportunity is posted by Diagnostic Centers under the state of California with a response deadline of August 18, 2026, and was made available on August 4, 2026. There is no set-aside designation or specific solicitation number, indicating it operates under a broader participation incentive framework rather than a formal competitive bidding process. The place of performance and point of contact details are unspecified, suggesting the work may occur across multiple locations within California. Interested parties must engage directly through the provided portal to express interest and demonstrate compliance with certification requirements to be considered as a participating subcontractor.
