Failure to list subcontractors and subcontracting amounts on pages 1-6 through 1-8 with the bid sufficient to meet or exceed the MSM may cause the bid to be rejected by the Board of Public Works as non-responsive.

No MBE, WBE, SBE, EBE, or DVBE credit will be given unless the subcontractor and subcontracting amounts are listed on pages 1-6 through 1-8. Note the following when calculating the pledged levels of participation:
$ MSM credit will not be given to a joint venture partner listed as a Subcontractor by a joint venture.
$ Listed vendors and/or suppliers will be limited to 60% of their listed dollar value toward achieving both the MSM and the anticipated MBE, WBE, SBE, EBE, and DVBE levels of participation for this project, unless the vendor and/or supplier manufactures or substantially alters the materials/supplies.
