VENDOR COMPLIANCE TO STATE LAW
The 1985 Session of the Texas Legislature passed House Bill 620 relative to the award of
contracts to non-resident bidders. This law provides that, in order to be awarded a
contract as low bidder, non-resident bidders (out-of-state contractors whose corporate
offices or principal place of business are outside of the State of Texas) bid projects for
construction, improvements, supplies or services in Texas at an amount lower than the
lowest Texas resident bidder by the same amount that a Texas resident bidder would be
required too underbid a non-resident bidder in order to obtain a comparable contract in
the State in which the non-resident's principal place of business is located. The
appropriate blanks in Section A must be filled out by all out-of-state or non-resident
bidders in order for your bid to meet specifications. The failure of out-of-state or non-
resident contractors to do so will automatically disqualify that bidder. Resident bidders
must check the box in Section B.
A. Non-resident vendors in (give State), our principal place of
business, are required to be percent lower than resident bidders
by State law. A copy of the Statute is attached.
Non-resident vendors in (give State), our principal
place of business, are not required to underbid resident bidders.
B. Our principal place of business or corporate offices are in the State of Texas.

M/WBE Office
City of Fort Worth
1000 Throckmorton St
Fort Worth, TX 76102
Greetings:
Enclosed in this folder you will find our M/WBE documentation for the listed project,
which bid yesterday, March 26, 2009.
we
You will note that this project lists M/WBE participation that is above the goal that was
set for this project. You will also note that we have included documentation of Good
.. Faith Effort, which we are aware is not necessary if the goal is met.
We have been highly concerned that our efforts to comply with the M/WBE Ordinance
may be lacking in accuracy or completeness, especially in light of a recent finding of
non-compliance on another project.
It is vital to our company that we always meet the standard of Good Faith Effort on all
projects we bid to the City of Fort Worth, because we can never be certain prior to
bidding whether we will be able to meet a goal on any given project until the final bid is
assembled and all participation is verified.
Therefore, we respectfully request that, even though it is not necessary for us to meet
Good Faith Effort on this project submittal, your office could please take the time to
verify our Good Faith Effort submittal so that we can be assured that future projects will
be in line with the necessary requirements.
ON
We realize we are asking for valuable time from your staff, but we do intend to work with
and satisfy the M/WBE Office in all requirements that pertain to our City contracts. Your
evaluation of this submittal will help us to continue our efforts to do so.
Respectfully,
PanM�cClendon
President

Failure to complete this form, in its entirety with requested documentation, and received by the Managing
Department on or before 5:00 p.m. five (5) City business days after bid opening, exclusive of bid opening date,
will result in the bid being considered non -responsive to bid specifications.
The undersigned Offeror agrees to enter into a formal agreement with the M/WBE firm(s) listed in this
utilization schedule, conditioned upon execution of a contract with the City of Fort Worth. The intentional
and/or knowing misrepresentation of facts is grounds for consideration of disqualification and will result in the

M/WBEs listed toward meeting the project goal must be located in the nine (9) county marketplace or
currently doing business in the marketplace at the time of bid. Marketplace is the geographic area of Tarrant,
Parker, Johnson, Collin, Dallas, Denton, Ellis, Kaufman and Rockwall counties.
Identify each Tier level. Tier is the level of subcontracting below the prime contractor, i.e., a direct
payment from the prime contractor to a subcontractor is considered 1st tier, a payment by a subcontractor to
its supplier is considered 2nd tier

fees and commissions earned by the M/WBE as outlined in the lease agreement.
