Contract Administration Unit

The SBE Unit of the Compliance Programs Office is required to determine compliance with SBE contract specification and federal regulations on all Federal Aid SBE goal projects. This includes monitoring the performance of contractors and subcontractors from pre-award to completion. We are responsible for the following activities:

• Review and approve CS-6AAA Forms (SBE Goal Projects only)

• Assist low bidders, to submit forms electronically

• Monitor monthly payments to SBE's

• Resolve conflicts and complaints on SBE projects

• Evaluate completed projects for compliance with these contract requirements

• Approve Request to Sublet documents (SBE projects only)

All Federal Aid Construction Projects include the following statement on Page G1: "Failure to comply with the Required Contract Provisions for SBE Participation in Federal Aid Construction Contracts shall constitute a breach of contract and, after notification by DOTD may result in rejection of the bid; termination of the contract, deduction from the contract funds due or to become due the contractor; or other such remedy as DOTD deems appropriate." We are available to provide assistance to the contracting community in complying with all SBE contract issues.
