This Part 3 is for contractors that passed the Safety Prequalification previously and want to rely on that passing result/score for this solicitation. Because firms create new OSHA Form 300 and Form 300A each March, the years of your prior submission matter and must match the Reference Years identified below. For the prior submission information, please be sure to list the first Safety Prequalification submission that used the correct Reference Years and included submission of the OSHA Form 300 and Form 300A. Please always rely on the first passing submission that used the same Reference Years.

You cannot rely on passing Step 3 evaluations that are more than six-months old.

Step 3.

Your firm must be evaluated at Step 3 to pass the Safety Prequalification. Your firm may earn up to 300 points in the following categories:

• Document Submissions up to 50 points
  The Third-Party Safety Expert will verify that the correct documents are submitted. You may earn up to 50 points for submitting these documents. The CCSF may adjust your submission score if it is determined that the document submitted is not the requested document.
• Document Content Evaluation up to 160 points
  The Third-Party Safety Expert will grade the content of each document and provide a score. The detailed evaluation of your documents by the Third-Party Safety Expert will be provided post-bid.
• Injury and Lost Work Rates compared to Industry Standards up to 90 points

The points are fully described on the prequalification page of the SFPUC website.

Negative points will be assigned to your firm based on the Third-Party Safety Expert’s review of Part 7: OSHA Violation History. Your firm must have a positive score of 150 to pass Step 3. The results of your evaluation, pass or fail, will be provided upon completion of the evaluation and concurrence by the Department. The detailed evaluation by the Third-Party Safety Expert will be provided post-bid. Please see the prequalification page on sfpuc.org for a description of the scoring rubrics for the OSHA violations.
