Commission on Human Rights and Opportunities:
The contractor who is selected to perform this State project must comply with Connecticut General Statutes Sections (C.G.S. §§) 4a-60, 4a-60g, and 46a-68b through 46a-68f. State law requires a minimum spending allocation goal of the state-funded portion of the contract for award to subcontractors holding current certification from DAS under the provisions of C.G.S. § 4a-60g.

Why Can’t I Click “Select” and “Accept” in the Solicitation?
You need to select “Add New Response” and create a Quote (which you can rename) in order to “Select” and “Accept” the boxes next to the documents. If you do not see the “Attach Documents” tab, not all Solicitation Documents have been opened and accepted on the “Overview” tab.
Does My Firm Need To Be Prequalified To Bid?
All bids greater than $1,000,000 require a bidder to be currently prequalified. To find the specific prequalification requirements for a project, see page 1 of the Invitation to Bid. The Invitation to Bid can be downloaded from the DAS Construction Services Bid Board on CTsource (https://portal.ct.gov/DAS/Construction-Services/BidBoard).
How Do I Find The List of Plan Holders?
Go to the DAS Construction Services Bid Board (https://portal.ct.gov/DAS/Construction-Services/BidBoard) and select the “View Plan Holder List”.
How Do I Find The Pre-Bid Site Meeting Attendance List?
The Pre-Bid Site Meeting Attendance List will be provided in an addendum to the solicitation. To find the addendums for a solicitation, go to the DAS Construction Services Bid Board (https://portal.ct.gov/DAS/Construction-Services/BidBoard), scroll down and click on the appropriate solicitation, and click on the link(s) for the addendums. If there are no addendums, then the Pre-Bid Meeting has not yet taken place.
How Do I Find The Bid Tab (and Bids) After The Bid Has Closed?

Need a bond for this one? Get prequalified once.
Most Connecticut work asks for the two below, and the solicitation documents are where it’s stated. One prequalification covers both — on this bid and the next.
Prequalified contractors know they can be bonded before they write the bid — and skip the application on every one of these. The bond becomes a request form and a copy of the RFP, not a scramble at the deadline.Prequalify For Bonding →What’s a good guy letter?
A surety’s written statement that it expects to bond you up to a stated amount, subject to final underwriting. It’s what a GC or agency asks to see before they take your bid seriously.
