This is a Minority and Women Business Enterprise (MWBE) Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) compliance document for the State University of New York at Geneseo's Blake Building rehabilitation and demolition project. The project involves the full renovation of Blake Hall Wing A and complete demolition of Blake Hall Wings B and C, with design firms sought to provide design and construction administration services. The document establishes the framework for achieving MWBE participation goals and EEO compliance requirements throughout the procurement and execution phases of this capital project.

The document outlines specific contracting goals for minority-owned businesses (MBE) at 15.00% and women-owned businesses (WBE) at 15.00%, along with a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Business (SDVOB) goal of 6.00%. These goals are binding requirements for awarded contractors and their subcontractors, with provisions for documentation, reporting, and compliance monitoring. No businesses hold identical or substantially similar procurement contracts from this project within the past five years, establishing this as a new procurement opportunity. The MWBE/EEO document serves as the contractual mechanism to ensure equitable participation of certified minority and women-owned enterprises throughout the design, bidding, and construction phases, requiring detailed tracking of utilization, good faith efforts toward goal achievement, and penalties for non-compliance.
