Staff and presenter detail contractor vetting, tripartite contract approach
Summary
Staff and the presenter reviewed contractor vetting (SAM.gov checks, e-Verify) and discussed using a tripartite construction agreement that includes homeowner, contractor, and program requirements.
Staff and a presenter discussed how bidders will be vetted and how the construction contract will be structured to protect program compliance. Staff member said they verify contractors through federal systems: "I will check the, sam.gov website as well," and noted contractors will certify eligibility up front.
The Presenter described a multipart (tripartite) construction agreement that places program requirements alongside homeowner and contractor obligations, saying the city's requirements "go in" the document and that it will include homeowner and contractor verbiage. Staff said problematic firms previously were removed from consideration when federal-project issues arose.
