Notwithstanding any subgoals established for this IFB, the Contractor is encouraged to use a diverse group of subcontractors and suppliers from any/all of the various MBE classifications to meet the remainder of the overall MBE participation goal.

By submitting a response to this solicitation, the Bidder acknowledges the overall MBE subcontractor participation goal and subgoals, and commits to achieving the overall goal and subgoals by utilizing certified minority business enterprises, or requests a full or partial waiver of the overall goal and subgoals.

Failure of a Bidder to properly complete, sign, and submit Attachment D-1A at the time it submits its Bid(s) to the IFB will result in the State’s rejection of the Bidder’s Bid for the applicable Service Category. This failure is not curable.
