You need a supplier who is certified, capable, and easy to award to. STG holds both Small Business and DVBE certification from DGS, so one award supports your department’s 25 percent SB goal and its 3 percent DVBE goal, and we qualify for the SB/DVBE Option whether you pull quotes from SBs or DVBEs. Every quote arrives with model numbers, line-item pricing, lead times, and the certification and state forms your file needs.
One award, two goals
Certified SB and DVBE #16831. An award to STG counts toward both participation goals in your reporting.

Authorized Canon, Ricoh, and Brother dealer, and an authorized reseller under Canon’s and Ricoh’s CMAS and NASPO ValuePoint contracts.
Statewide coverage

Dollar thresholds per current DGS procurement rules. Confirm against your department’s purchasing authority.
| Method | Dollar range | What it takes |
|---|---|---|
| Fair and reasonable | Under $20,000 | One quote at a fair and reasonable price. Encouraged with certified SBs and DVBEs. |
| SB/DVBE Option | $5,000.01 to $249,999.99 | Quotes from at least two certified SBs or two certified DVBEs. No advertising, no protest period. Lowest price wins. |
| CMAS | Per order, within CMAS terms | Canon and Ricoh California Multiple Award Schedules. Pricing already assessed as fair and reasonable. |
| NASPO ValuePoint | Per order, under the California participating addendum | Canon or Ricoh cooperative contract with STG as the authorized dealer. |
| Formal solicitation (IFB, RFQ, RFP) | Any value | 5 percent small business preference. DVBE incentive of up to 5 percent in bid evaluation. |
| DVBE subcontract | Any value | Primes meet DVBE participation requirements by subcontracting to STG, with declarations provided. |
CMAS and NASPO ValuePoint are also open to cities, counties, school districts, and special districts.
STG sells under Canon and Ricoh CMAS and NASPO pricing, which matches manufacturer direct pricing. You get the same equipment at the same contract price, from a certified SB and DVBE.
A DVBE is at least 51 percent owned by one or more disabled veterans, managed by them, and certified by DGS. STG is owned and run by David Scott, a service-disabled Marine veteran.
David Scott served as a U.S. Marine Corps infantry sergeant from 1999 to 2003, including Operation Iraqi Freedom.
He is a service-disabled veteran and has owned and run Scott Technology Group since 2011. His father, Giles Scott, founded the company in Rohnert Park in 1995. STG has held SB and DVBE certification since 2012.
Bring a requirement, a question about the SB/DVBE Option, or a fleet that needs a fresh look. You’ll leave with a clear buying path, and the forms you need follow right after.
