Description
The State of Michigan is seeking bids for the Bishop Airport Landfill project. The project details are not specified in the document, but it mentions that Service Disabled Veteran Owned Business (SDVOB) preference will be given to qualified businesses. To be eligible for the SDVOB preference, businesses must provide proof of service and conditions of discharge, proof of service-connected disability, and proof of ownership. The state will also accept a National Veterans Business Development Council (NVBDC) certification as verification of eligibility.
• The SDVOB preference is claimed when bidding on a State of Michigan contract.
• The state does not pre-certify businesses as SDVOBs and does not accept the federal Center for Verification and Evaluation (CVE) database or the US Small Business Administration (VetCert).
• The SDVOB pricing preference is 10% of the bid price.
• The state has a special commitment to veterans with service-connected disabilities who bid on State of Michigan contracts.
