WisDOT MINORITY BUSINESS ENTERPRISE (MBE) PROGRAM DISABLED VETERAN-OWNED BUSINESS (DVB) PROGRAM AWARENESS, COMPLIANCE & ACTION PLAN
As a matter of sound business practice, the Wisconsin Department of Transportation is committed to supply diversity by promoting the use of minority business and disabled veteran-owned business whenever and wherever possible. Additionally, as an agency of the State of Wisconsin, WisDOT shares in the state goal of placing five (5) percent of its total annual purchasing dollars with state-certified minority and disabled veteran-owned businesses. State of Wisconsin procurement policy provides that Minority Business Enterprises (MBE) and Disabled Veteran-owned Businesses (DVB) certified by the Wisconsin Department of Administration should have the maximum opportunity to participate in the performance of its contracts/projects. You, as a contractor, are strongly urged to use due diligence to further this policy by awarding subcontracts to MBEs and DVBs by using such enterprises to provide goods and services incidental to this agreement (second-tier suppliers), with a goal of awarding 5% of the contract cost to such enterprises. Authority for these programs is found in Wisconsin Statutes 15.107(2), 16.283(3), 16.75(3m), 16.755 and 560.036(2), and details about the program can be found at: http://www.doa.state.wi.us/category.asp?linkcatid=677&linkid=113&locid=0 Monthly reports are requested to be submitted to the Department of Transportation Purchasing Unit, itemizing the costs of services and goods provided by certified firms. Reports should state the costs for the previous contract/project month. Your complete response on the following form must address the following components of your companys/organizations commitment/action plan: a) Indication that you understand the WisDOTs goal, b) Listing of any MBE/DVB vendors with which you intend to subcontract, c) Description of the various second tier MBE/DVB expenses (goods and services procured that are incidental to the contract/project; examples are: specific office supplies to perform the contract, percentage of cost for uniforms for contract staff, travel to perform the contract/project, percentage of facility maintenance services for your facility used directly by your staff during the contract/project period) your company/organization will be able to report that are in direct connection with the administration of this contract, d) Statement expressing your commitment to complete the required monthly reports that will reflect your subcontracts and second-tier expenditures for the period.
