Eligible resident-owned businesses submit applications to Housing

competitive procurement procedures. In order for a resident-owned 
business to be eligible for noncompetitive contract work, or the 
alternative procurement process provided by 24 CFR 963, a business must 
submit evidence as outlined in 24 CFR 963.10 to the PHA, in the formed 
described therein, or as the PHA may require, that shows how each 
requirement as described in 24 CFR 963.10 has been met.
    For example, resident-owned businesses must provide, and PHAs must 
collect various types of information, including, but not limited to:
    Certified copies of any State, county, or municipal licenses that 
may be required of the business to engage in the type of business 
activity for which it was formed. Where applicable (as for example, in 
the case of corporations), the business also shall submit a certified 
copy of its corporate charter or other organizational document that 
verifies that the business was properly formed in accordance with State 
law.
    The business shall disclose to the PHA all owners of the business, 
and each owner's percentage of ownership interest in the business. The 
business also shall disclose all individuals who possess the power to 
make the day-to-day, as well as major, decisions on matters of 
management, policy and operations (management officials). The business 
shall identify all owners and management officials who are not public 
housing residents, and shall disclose any relationship that these 
owners and officials may have to a business (resident- or non-resident-
owned) engaged in the type of business activity with which the 
resident-owned business is engaged. The business also shall submit such 
evidence as the PHA may require to verify that the owner or owners 
identified as public housing residents reside within public housing of 
the PHA.
    The business shall submit evidence sufficient to demonstrate to the 
satisfaction of the PHA that the business has the ability to perform 
successfully under the terms and conditions of the proposed contract.
    The business shall submit a certification as to the number of 
contracts awarded, and the dollar amount of each contract award 
received, under the alternative procurement process provided by 24 CFR 
963. A resident-owned business is not eligible to participate in the 
alternative procurement process provided by 24 CFR 963 if the resident-
owned business has received under this process one or more contracts 
with a total combined dollar value of $1,000,000.
