About this file

This is an MBE, VSBE, and SBR Research Factors Template document prepared by the State of Maryland for solicitation BA-681-240-001 regarding ADA Modifications. The document outlines the state's analysis of participation opportunities for minority business enterprises, veteran-owned small business enterprises, and small business reserves in the project. The research identifies subcontracting opportunities across three primary NAICS codes: Carpentry (238350) with 253 certified MBEs, Electrical (238210) with 456 certified MBEs, and Plumbing, Heating, and A/C (238220) with 185 certified MBEs. The combined keyword search across all three categories identified 894 certified MBEs in the Maryland Department of Transportation directory.

The template serves as a framework to encourage small business participation, with particular emphasis on small businesses submitting bids as prime contractors to compete at the secondary competition level for SBR-designated agreements. SBR certification is required to receive SBR-designated secondary competition agreement awards. The document explicitly states that the research results are not all-inclusive and do not exclude additional subcontracting opportunities that bidders may identify during proposal preparation. This procurement is designated as a Statewide Master Contract with potential secondary competition through task order or purchase order agreements.
