Contractors, all forms and documents must be completed as per the contract specifications. This is a reminder that the Subcontractor List form must be filled out correctly. Your attention is directed the instructions on the form and to items 4.2 and 4.3 in section 2-1.10 of the Standard Specifications dated 2015.

If the percentage of the subcontracted work is less than 100 percent a description of the work to be performed is required on the form. If Caltrans cannot determine from the form what work is to be performed, your bid will be nonresponsive. The percentage listed should be for the work and not the cost/bid for the work.

Contractors, submit your DBE/DVBE documents as per Section 2 of the Standard Specifications.
