About this file

This is a Minority Business Enterprise (MBE) Participation Acknowledgment form issued by the Rhode Island Division of Equity, Diversity and Inclusion, Minority Business Enterprise Compliance Office. The form is required for MPA 54, an open enrollment contract for interpreting and translation services of oral and/or written words in Rhode Island. The form must be completed by prime contractors prior to contract award and requires acknowledgment of the State's requirements regarding the inclusion of minority and women-owned business enterprises in all state-funded and state-directed public construction programs, projects, and purchases. Prime contractors must provide authorized contact information, contractor phone numbers, and email addresses, and identify their business status regarding Minority Business Enterprise (MBE), Women Business Enterprise (WBE), Veteran Business Enterprise (VBE) certification, or indicate if none apply.

Rhode Island General Laws 37-14.1 et al. mandate that MBE and WBE certified businesses be awarded a minimum of 15 percent of the dollar value of entire procurements or projects. By executing the acknowledgment, prime contractors confirm their understanding that they must submit executed agreements with subcontractors to the MBE Compliance Office, submit monthly reports verifying payments to MBE subcontractors, immediately notify the office of all changes in vendors or subcontractors including change orders, and understand that failure to comply may result in non-compliance determinations and sanctions. The authorized signatory must certify under penalty of perjury that the contents are true and correct.
