About this file

This document is an MBE, VSBE, and SBR Research Factors Template prepared by the State of Maryland's Department of General Services for the Janitorial Services solicitation at the Towson District Courthouse (eMMA Solicitation No. BPM048760). The exhibit outlines the state's analysis of participation opportunities for Minority Business Enterprises (MBEs), Veteran-owned Small Business Enterprises (VSBEs), and Small Business Reserves (SBRs) in this procurement. The solicitation seeks janitorial services for the courthouse facility in accordance with specified terms, conditions, and specifications. No specific response dates, due dates, site visit requirements, bidder's meetings, award dates, or contract term information is provided in this research factors document.

The research identifies 208 certified MBEs in the Maryland Department of Transportation (MDOT) Directory under NAICS Code 561720 (Janitorial Services) as potential subcontractors for MBE participation. For VSBE participation, the document does not specify a number of certified vendors in the MDOT Directory. The document identifies 293 certified SBRs available in the eMaryland Marketplace Advantage (eMMA) Directory under UNSPSC/eMMA Category Code 7610000 (Janitorial Services) for secondary competition agreements. The state encourages small businesses to submit bids as Prime Contractors to compete at the SBR secondary competition level, with SBR certification required to receive SBR-designated secondary competition agreement awards. This research summary is not all-inclusive and does not exclude other subcontracting opportunities that bidders may identify during proposal preparation.
