This document is an Equal Business Opportunity Plan Application form focused on Minority and Female Business Enterprise (MBE/FBE) participation for a state or local contract opportunity. The document provides detailed instructions and forms for prime contractors to document their planned utilization of minority and female-owned businesses across different procurement categories including A/E & Professional Services, Construction, and Goods & Non-Professional Services.

The application requires prime contractors to outline their intended MBE/FBE participation percentages, with specific categories for Asian (ABE), African-American (AABE), Hispanic (HBE), Native American (NABE), and Female (FBE) businesses. The document stipulates that if an MBE or FBE is not performing satisfactorily, the Prime Contractor must notify the Equal Business Opportunity (EBO) Office and seek approval for replacements from the Equal Business Opportunity Review Committee (EBORC). Failure to follow these guidelines can result in penalties under Section 127-19 of the EBO Ordinance. The form includes a certification section where the bidder affirms their intent to utilize listed MBEs and FBEs if awarded the project and to abide by all EBO guidelines.
