| Install-photo records & Checklists A/B/C | Audit File Template | N/A | ✓ On-Site Sign-Off |
Concrete Audit Scenario: 18 Months Later
How the four-step evidence file supports compliance reviews when state or federal auditors pull project files. Illustrative scenario — not a guaranteed audit outcome.
Tailgate Intake & Calibration
MWBE crew receives a 5-gallon XyloSHIELD™ concentrate at jobsite tailgate. Supervisor scans container QR code, verifies custody, and logs ULV sprayer calibration.
Install-photo application record
MWBE crew applies neat spray to ~5,000 sq ft open framing (one 5-gal pail coverage class). GPS time-stamped photos and signed Checklists B & C are compiled into the prime audit file.
Ongoing Station Monitoring
Crew maintains six on-site monitoring stations and logs Checklist C inspections on schedule — continuous technical presence between install and audit, not a one-day visit.
Audit Confirmation
State DOT / DASNY compliance officer reviews the project file. The prime produces the ErythroAGRO evidence chain (intake → application → monitoring). Illustrative outcome: CUF documentation accepted; MWBE-related retainage / progress holds released.
Offense & Defense System → specialty subcontract
You buy a fixed-scope operating kit from ErythroAGRO. Your firm prices the specialty timber scope to the prime — product + playbook + field docs, not a bucket of spray. Documentation is designed to support CUF review.
- • Paper-brokerage risk: On a large MWBE subcontract, a finding that the MWBE only brokered materials can stall retainage or progress payments tied to participation — enough to freeze cash flow. (Illustrative only; amounts vary by contract.)
- • Directory & removal risk: Failure to show independent crew execution can jeopardize future bid eligibility and prime willingness to keep you on the team.
- • Real crew work: Your operators perform neat timber application with their calibrated ULV / spray equipment — zero-water tank-mix, so no on-site water access or complex mixing — not a pass-through invoice.
- • Fluid + void specialty scope: Perimeter Defense spray plus documented T-Bait convert labor (Spider pull → fill upper void → GPS CUF photos) — the work commercial / gov markets already price above fluid-only spray.
- • Field documentation stack: Custody photos, install-photo / convert records, 6 monitoring stations, and Checklists A/B/C for prime diligence — CUF documentation support, not a government certification.
- • Preconfigured specialty bids: Preconfigured specialty bid drafts you size by volume, copy / paste, and customize for the job. Starting draft only — copy / paste, then customize for the project. Review with legal / compliance (or whoever owns bid submittals) before sending to a prime. Not a quote, rate card, or legal advice. Partner sets final prices. Templates refresh as active timber packages evolve. Agency / prime decides CUF.

2 · How partners often bill the prime
Illustrative specialty subcontract for ~5,000 sq ft (one 5-gal pail class — example only; not a market survey or third-party estimate). Larger framing packages scale at ~1,000 sq ft/gal. T-Bait convert labor is additive to core fluid + stations + documentation. After Batch #001, T-Bait is its own SKU / package ($299/tube); convert / void labor is how partners bill that specialty scope to the prime. Partner sets their own prices.
| Line item (example) | What the prime is buying | Illustrative |
|---|---|---|
| Structural timber defense application | Crew neat Perimeter Defense on open framing / crawlspace / sill plate woodlines | $16,000–$18,000 |
| Continuous subterranean monitoring | Station install + scheduled inspection / log maintenance (e.g. 18-month framing) | $5,000–$6,000 |
| Digital field QA/QC, chain-of-custody & compliance reporting | Operational deliverable: field QA/QC + chain-of-custody reporting; includes the CUF evidence package (A/B/C + install-photo records) for prime diligence | $4,000–$5,000 |
| Applicator protocol & site setup | Protocol-trained crew posture, calibration, and environmental / safety setup on site | $3,000 |
| Core specialty scope (no T-Bait) | ~$28,000–$36,000 | |
| + Void / station convert (T-Bait) | Spider pull upper cartridge → fill upper void on wooden base + between-beam paste — additive Offense labor (own SKU after Batch #001) | +$4,000–$6,000 |
| Combined illustrative (core + T-Bait) | ~$32,000–$42,000 | |
Not a quote from ErythroAGRO. Not ErythroAGRO’s public rate card. Not a guarantee of award, margin, retainage release, or CUF credit. Illustrative line items are partner→prime pricing examples only. Tube wholesale ($299/tube) is what you buy from ErythroAGRO; convert / void dollars are partner→prime labor. After Batch #001, reorder Perimeter Defense and T-Bait (Offense) as separate packages; eDNA is a third separate package later. Field documentation is evidence supporting a CUF determination — the contracting agency or prime decides CUF. Not a government certification, structural warranty, or pest-free guarantee. ULV / spray equipment remains partner crew gear unless separately contracted.
CUF principles across federal & state programs
How Protocol maps to common diligence themes — not one unified compliance regime. Federal DBE and state MWBE are separate programs; agencies evaluate independently.
| Regulatory statute / body | Common diligence theme | ErythroAGRO Protocol mapping | Evidence artifacts |
|---|---|---|---|
|
Federal Transit & DOT 49 CFR § 26.55(c) |
DBE must actually perform a commercially useful function — responsible for execution through management, supervision, and real performance of the contracted scope (equipment ownership or rental can be relevant evidence). | F.O.B. Tailgate custody intake, sprayer calibration log, and field application / install photo records under MWBE crew control. | Checklist A & B |
|
New York State ESD / DASNY Exec. Law Article 15-A |
Paper brokerage without independent performance fails CUF diligence. Reviewers look for independent management, material responsibility, and actual performance of the contracted scope. | Protocol documents custody, calibration, neat application, and field oversight so the MWBE can show self-performed technical presence — not a pass-through invoice. | Checklist C |
|
EPA Section 25(b) 40 CFR § 152.25(f) |
Federal minimum-risk class: qualifying ingredients, complete disclosure, and compliant claims/labeling. Does not impose ErythroAGRO’s neat / zero-water application rule. | Formulation: anhydrous lipid matrix under 25(b) positioning. Protocol SOP: neat spray only — no water tank mix (product / SOP requirement, not an EPA 25(b) condition). | GHS & SDS File |
|
Prime Contractor Diligence Common AGC / AIA themes |
Verification of subcontractor entity registration, SAM status, CAGE / UEI, and safety protocols (diligence themes — not a single codified “AGC/AIA statute”). | ErythroAGRO SAM registration, CAGE 21WE3, UEI WUJZVFFZHGS2, NAICS 561710 / 561110, and turnkey partner diligence packet. | SAM registered |
Prime Contractor Diligence: ErythroAGRO™ SAM Registered Entity | CAGE: 21WE3 | UEI: WUJZVFFZHGS2 | NAICS: 561710 / 561110. Formulation positioned as an EPA Section 25(b) minimum-risk exempt product under 40 CFR § 152.25(f) at the federal level — states may still require registration or other conditions; confirm jurisdiction before use.
Compliance notice: Protocol helps MWBE partners perform and document commercially useful function evidence under applicable program requirements. Documentation is evidence supporting a CUF determination — not proof of CUF, not universal compliance, and not automatic credit. The contracting agency or prime ultimately determines CUF. Federal DBE and state MWBE programs may evaluate the same facts differently.
Compliance notice: supports documentation of technical scope for CUF audit readiness. Not a government certification, EPA approval, or guaranteed compliance credit.
