This website provides potential subcontractors <br />the opportunity to register with Ceres their pertinent company information, current business status, and <br />capabilities. This information is linked to upload into our database facilitating more ready access by means <br />of database inquiry to locate specific types of contractors, specific types of business concerns, and/or <br />specific locations. The information required to be submitted by each potential subcontractor. which is <br />retained in the database, includes: <br /> <br />Information provided by the subcontractors in the registration includes the following: <br />. Contractor Name <br />. Address <br />. Phone Number <br />. FAX Number <br />. Business Type (SBs, SDBs, WOSBs, VOSBs, SDVOSBs, and HUBZones) <br />· Ownership Information <br />. Years in Business <br />. Insurance Information <br />. Equipment Available (type and quantity) <br /> <br />o <br /> <br />All potential vendors and subcontractors will be integrated into the Ceres Subcontractor Database <br />modified specifically for this project. This (Access) database retains basic subcontractor information <br />(name, address, and contact information), types of equipment or services provided, any pricing <br />agreement, and business status. In addition, this system tracks work or services provided by each <br />organization, amounts invoiced, and goals. This active vendor base will continue to be broadened <br />throughout the performance of this contact as additional potential vendors and subcontractors are <br />identified and/or as additional needs/solicitations arise. Efforts to broaden this vendor database shall also <br />be in conformance to those requirements of FAR 19.704(a) and 52.219-9(d), DFARS Subpart 219.5, <br />219.704(a)(1). 219.705 and 252.219-7003. The provision of certain services or materials sought in support <br />of this contract may be restricted to competitive bids received from only SDBs. Such restrictions will be <br />identified by the Project Manager and communicated to the appropriate buyer(s) or contract administrator <br />assisting in solicitation of competitive bids. <br /> <br />Ceres is able to utilize the information in this database, then, to contact potential subcontractors who may <br />be interested and capable of providing specific services to our company. By identifying any parameters, <br />such as service type or business location, Ceres can quickly generate an extensive list of potential <br />subcontractors, meeting the criteria of a disadvantaged business as discussed in this plan, for the 0 <br />purposes of soliciting a competitive bid for such services. <br /> <br />CJ;.SJ;S <br /> <br />Tab D Technical Information <br />Section D.3 Subcontracting Plan <br />Page 6 of9 <br />
