Small & Local Business Program

The Santa Clara Valley Water District is committed to increasing San Francisco Bay Area contractor, vendor and consultant participation in District projects. (See Ordinance 04-01, available for download at right).

If your firm is headquartered or has a main office in the Bay Area, please register at our Contract Administration Web portal. This information will help the Contract Administration office to focus contracting outreach efforts to all segments of the community.

Businesses meeting the State of California criteria for Small/Micro Business certification:

are encouraged to obtain State certification and submit proof with their Statement of Qualifications (SOQ) package during the creation of the Qualified Consultant List.

The District encourages small and micro-businesses (as defined by section 14836-37 of the CA Government Code) to respond to RFPs.
