About this file
This is a Minority Business Enterprise (MBE), Veteran-owned Small Business Enterprise (VSBE), and Small Business Reserve (SBR) Research Factors template issued by the State of Maryland for an Invitation for Bids (IFB) solicitation (BPM048760) for janitorial services at the Towson District Courthouse. The document outlines the state's analysis of subcontracting opportunities and the availability of certified businesses in relevant industries to support the procurement. The research identified 208 certified MBEs in the janitorial services sector (NAICS Code 561720) and 293 certified SBRs available in the Janitorial Services category (UNSPSC Code 7610000) within the eMaryland Marketplace Advantage (eMMA) directory.
The exhibit serves as guidance for bidders to identify subcontracting opportunities with small, minority, and veteran-owned businesses. The state encourages small businesses to submit bids as prime contractors to compete for SBR-designated secondary competition agreements, which require SBR certification for award eligibility. This research is not exhaustive and does not preclude bidders from identifying additional subcontracting opportunities beyond those identified in the analysis. The document was made effective in July 2024 and provides a framework for promoting small business participation in the janitorial services procurement.
