About this file

This is an MBE, WBE, and Disability Business Enterprise Participation Plan form from the State of Rhode Island Department of Administration, designed for use in conjunction with the statewide school food services program (MPA 421) solicitation administered by the Rhode Island Department of Education. The form captures commitments between prime contractors and certified minority business enterprises (MBEs), women business enterprises (WBEs), and Disability Business Enterprise subcontractors and suppliers. Vendors must submit completed forms at the time of bid for each subcontractor or supplier utilized, with proposals due by March 27, 2026 at 2:00 PM EDT through Ocean State Procures. Vendor questions are accepted through March 11, 2026 at 2:00 PM EDT. The contract term begins approximately July 1, 2026 for an initial one-year period, with options for up to four additional 12-month renewal periods at the discretion of RIDE, requiring written notice at least 90 days prior to each renewal year.

The participation plan requires that all MBE/WBE subcontractors and suppliers be certified by the Division of Equity, Diversity & Inclusion MBE Compliance Office at the time of bid submission, and all Disability Business Enterprises must be certified by the Governor's Commission on Disabilities. Subcontractors must self-perform 100 percent of work or subcontract exclusively to other Rhode Island-certified MBEs to receive participation credit. Vendors may count 60 percent of expenditures for materials and supplies obtained from MBEs certified as regular dealers or suppliers, and 100 percent of such expenditures from MBEs certified as manufacturers. The form requires detailed descriptions of work and subcontract values; vendors who fail to provide this information at bid submission will receive zero percent MBE participation credit. All awarded vendors are subject to a 0.33 percent contract administrative fee withheld from invoices and must maintain comprehensive insurance coverage including general liability, workers' compensation, automobile liability, liability for work with vulnerable populations, and technology errors and omissions insurance.
