About this file
This document is an exhibit detailing Minority Business Enterprise (MBE), Veteran-Owned Small Business (VSBE), and Small Business Reserve (SBR) research factors for a Maryland state and local contract opportunity related to an Event Management Platform being solicited by MCSS (Maryland Center for School Safety). The exhibit establishes the evaluation criteria and considerations for assessing potential contractors' qualifications and compliance with minority and small business participation requirements. The document outlines the framework for how bidders will be evaluated based on their status as MBE-certified, VSBE-certified, or small business entities, as well as the research methodologies and verification processes used to confirm such certifications and determine eligibility for set-aside provisions.
The exhibit serves as a research and evaluation tool to ensure compliance with state procurement policies designed to promote equitable business participation. It likely contains specific thresholds, scoring metrics, and documentation requirements that bidders must meet to qualify for preference considerations or set-aside portions of the contract. This exhibit is integral to the RFP process for the School Safety Conference event management platform, which will be held annually in July, and establishes the baseline for fair and transparent evaluation of all participating contractors regarding their minority and small business status.
