12 Addendum No. 2

e. If the MBE, WBE or SDVOB firms are given opportunities to bid or propose through a joint venture, only the percentage amount equal to the proportion of the total dollar value of the subcontract to be awarded equal to clearly defined portion of the subcontracted work the MBE/WBE/SDVOB is proposed to perform with its own forces will be counted towards the respective Outreach Goal.

f. If the MBE, WBE or SDVOB proposes to subcontract to another firm part of the Work to be awarded to the MBE, WBE or SDVOB, the value of the work subcontracted to another firm may be counted toward Outreach Goals only if the proposed second-tier subcontractor is also itself an MBE, WBE or SDVOB.
