Good Faith Effort Plan (GFEP) FAQs
* Q: Is the 16% SBOP goal mandatory?
A: No, it is not mandatory. Respondents that meet the goal may earn all SBOP points. Proposing less than
the aspirational goal will result in fewer SBOP points awarded. If the goal is not met, proof of outreach
efforts is required with the RFCSP submittal.
* Q: As the prime contractor, if my business is SBE-certified, do I need to find SBE-certified subconsultants?
A: A prime contractor that is local and is SBE-certified will most likely meet the goal. However, the GFEP is a
required document and needs to be submitted even if you, as the prime, fulfill the goal.
* Q: Do I need to include all my subconsultants in the GFEP or just those that qualify toward the SBOP goal?
A: All tiers of subconsultants need to be included in the GFEP, even those that do not count towards the
SBOP goal. (I.e., Include subconsultants that are not SBE-certified and not local.)
* Q: What if I have questions about the GFEP or am having trouble finding SBE-certified subconsultants?
A: Free, Excel-exportable outreach lists can be downloaded at www.sctrca.org. Please reach out to the SBOP
Director at marisol.robles@saws.org with any GFEP or outreach questions.
