The Local Agency Military Base Recovery Area (LAMBRA) program was developed to attract reinvestment and re-employ workers idled due to four rounds of base closures.
California Department of General Services provides a bid preference for state goods and services contracts, to promote employment growth and economic development in designated military base areas under the Local Agency Military Recovery Area (LAMBRA) Act.
LAMBRAs provide for two bidding preferences for contracts that exceed $100,000 in value: worksite and workforce. The worksite preference is 5% for businesses, where 50% of the labor for contracted goods is on-site, and 90% of the labor for services is on-site.
The workforce preference is an additional 1% to 4% for businesses which hire specified percentages of individuals living within a LAMBRA. Thus, the bidding preferences range from 1% to 9%.
