Why is it required to request to subcontract?

Section 16 of King County Department of Community and Human Services’ (DCHS) Contract Standard Terms and Conditions outlines requirements organizations must comply with if they want to subcontract any portion of the work they are contracted to perform for DCHS. This includes, but is not limited to, seeking written approval at least 15 days prior to the start of the proposed subcontract and ensuring certain standard terms and conditions flow down to the proposed subcontract. 

To support compliance with these requirements, DCHS requires contractors seeking to subcontract a portion of their contracted program activities to do the following as soon as possible, but no later than 15 days prior to the start of proposed subcontract:

  1. Email the DCHS Contract Manager a request to subcontract with required information  about the proposed subcontractor.
    • You are encouraged to send this information as soon as possible, preferably before you begin drafting a Subcontract so we can begin our review of the proposed Subcontractor.
  2. Provide a copy of the draft subcontract.
    • This can be emailed to your DCHS Contract Manager or uploaded via your Agiloft Provider Profile.
    • See “Section 16: Subcontracting” of DCHS’ Standard Terms and Conditions for required flow down terms and conditions. A list of typically required flow down terms and conditions can be found at [LINK].

Within 15 days of receiving all the needed information, a DCHS staff member will review it and approve or deny the request to enter into the proposed subcontract. Notice will come via email.  

Note: not all contracts allow for subcontracting. Please read your contract carefully.
