About this file
This is an MBE, VSBE, and SBR Research Factors Template prepared by the State of Maryland for the Cannabis Care Line (CCL) Pilot Program solicitation (eMMA Solicitation No. BPM057708). The document outlines the state's analysis of minority business enterprise, veteran-owned small business enterprise, and small business reserve participation opportunities for this procurement, which seeks to staff a free-to-caller Cannabis Care Line providing professional information on medical cannabis use and health-related cannabis questions. The exhibit serves as a comprehensive summary of subcontracting opportunities identified for the project, including relevant industry classification codes and the availability of certified businesses in Maryland's directories to support bidder proposal development.
The research identified substantial opportunities for diverse business participation across multiple service categories. For Minority Business Enterprise participation, the state identified 168 MBEs available for staffing services, along with additional MBE availability in areas including recruitment (15), data management (11), training (22), administrative support (13), quality assurance (61), nursing (29), outreach (28), information technology (1), call center operations (21), and healthcare services (36). Veteran-owned Small Business Enterprise research identified 27 VSBEs in healthcare, 1 in telehealth, and 1 in healthcare consulting. For Small Business Reserve participation at the secondary competition level, the state identified 30 SBRs available for staffing, 1 for recruitment, 18 for training, 4 for nursing, 1 for outreach, and 7 for information technology. The document encourages small businesses to submit bids as prime contractors to compete at the SBR level, with SBR certification required for award eligibility.
