They should not share office space, production, marketing and sales, or business support systems with any large business. The business should have independently and satisfactorily performed work worth $100,000 in the category for which a contract or subcontract is sought in the two most recent calendar years. The business should not be owned, controlled, or directed by individuals or groups who own a large business in the same category of work. If the business is a supplier, they should be an authorized regular distributor with normal wholesale agreements for the products they supply. If the business is a construction contractor, they should be licensed as required by the state. The document also includes an affidavit for claiming status as a disadvantaged business.
