About this file
This is an MBE/WBE Subcontractors and Supplier Solicitation and Commitment Form for the City of Allentown, Pennsylvania, applicable to Bid No. 2026-50 for Demolition Services. The form requires prime contractors and bidders to solicit participation from certified Minority Business Enterprise (MBE) and Women Business Enterprise (WBE) vendors for any subcontracted work or supplied materials. Bidders must document all solicited and unsolicited quotes received from MBE and WBE firms, including the company name, address, contact information, certification status, scope of work or materials to be supplied, dollar amounts, and acceptance or rejection status with reasons for any rejections. The solicitation process must commence a minimum of ten days prior to the bid opening date to allow MBE and WBE vendors adequate time to prepare comprehensive quotes. Completion and submission of this two-page form is mandatory for all bids exceeding $40,000.00; failure to submit the form will result in the bid being rejected as non-responsive.
The form requires bidders to provide their own company information, including name, address, telephone, fax, email, and contact person, and to indicate whether the prime contractor itself is a certified MBE or WBE or whether no subcontractors are needed. All MBE and WBE quotes must be submitted as supporting documentation with the bid package. The form emphasizes that bidders must solicit certified MBEs and WBEs only in their certified service areas to receive credit toward Minority Participation Levels (MPLs); for example, an MBE certified for electrical supplies would not receive credit if assigned plumbing work.

INSTRUCTION FOR COMPLETION OF THE MBE/WBE SUBCONTRACTOR AND SUPPLIER SOLICITATION AND COMMITMENT FORM
The purpose of this form is to determine whether the bidder has discriminated in the selection of subcontractors and suppliers. Bidders must solicit MBE and WBE vendor participation for any work the bidders intend to subcontract or for any supplies/materials required to perform the contract.

2. Provide subcontractors name, address, zip code, telephone number and contact person.
3. Indicate whether the firm is a certified MBE or WBE. Place an (X) in the appropriate column. If the firm is certified MBE and WBE, the bidder will receive credit for the firm as either MBE or WBE.
4. Briefly describe the specific work to be performed and/or materials to be supplied by the certified MBE or WBE. In order to count towards reaching the MPLs, bidders must solicit certified MBE’s/WBE’s in the areas which they are certified. For example, if an MBE/WBE is certified for electrical supplies and the bidder lists plumbing supplies, the bidder will not receive credit.
5. Enter the total dollar ($) amount of the quote received. If the quote was received in the form of unit prices or hourly rates, a total dollar amount must still be provided. If the subcontractor did not respond to the bidder, the bidder must indicate “No Response”. Copies of all MBE/WBE quotes must be submitted with the bid.
6. Enter acceptance or rejection of the quote.

This will ensure that MBE/WBE’s have sufficient time to prepare a quote. Ten days is a guide. However, adequate time must be provided to all subcontractors and suppliers to respond.
If additional forms are needed, you are permitted to photocopy form.
