STATE CONTRACTS AWARDED TO MINORITY CONTRACTORS | ||
| ||
By: Sandra Norman-Eady, Chief Attorney | ||
You asked for the number and value of contracts awarded to minority contractors in the past year.
SUMMARY
Generally, state agencies do not track the race, gender, nationality of contractors awarded state contracts. However, state agencies do track contractors certified as a minority business enterprises (MBE) and awarded contracts under the state's Small and Minority Business Set-Aside program (now, the Supplier Diversity Program).
Under the program, state agencies must set aside at least 25% of the total value of the contracts they let for construction, goods, and services each year for bidding exclusively by state-certified small businesses. The agencies must further set aside 25% of the set-aside value (6.25% of the total) for exclusive bidding by small minority-owned businesses. The Department of Administrative Services (DAS) administers the program through its Office of Supplier Diversity.
From January 1, 2008 to November 10, 2008, 127 contracts were awarded to MBEs by state agencies that use the CORE-CT system; the state's integrated financial, human resources, and payroll system. Some MBEs were awarded multiple contracts; thus, the 127 represents the number of contracts, not contractors.
The total estimated value of the MBE contracts during this period was over $37 million. The largest contract had an estimated value of over $5.6 million and awarded to VMS Construction Company to build drainage improvements on U.S. Route 6 at Route 69 in Bristol. The smallest contract with an estimated value was valued at $350 and awarded to Gardner Group Graphic Design, LLC to perform graphic designs. The estimated contract value does not necessarily reflect the final contract value.
MBE CONTRACTS AWARDED IN 2008
Table 1 shows the number, description, estimated value, and start and end date of contracts awarded to MBEs; identifies the vendor for each contract; and specifies the length of the vendor's certification.

SET-ASIDE PROGRAM
Under the state set-aside program, state agencies and political subdivisions, other than municipalities, must set aside 25% of total value of all contracts they let for construction, goods, and services each year for certified small contractors, and reserve 25% of this amount for certified MBEs (CGS § 4a-60g). The program also applies to state constituent units of higher education.
To participate, a vendor must register with DAS. Upon verification of a business' qualifications, the department issues a certification. A contractor that is certified to bid on set-aside contracts is not precluded from bidding on other state contracts. Like most state contracts, set-aside awards are based competitive bidding procedures.
To participate as an MBE, the business must register with DAS and have:
1. been in business under the same ownership and management and maintained its principal place of business in Connecticut for at least one year immediately prior to the date of the application;
2. grossed revenues of $10 million or less for the most recent fiscal year; and
3. at least 51% ownership held by at least one member of a minority or a person with a disability who exercises operational authority over daily affairs of the business, has the power to direct policies and management, and receives beneficial interests from the business (CGS § 4a-60g (1)).
Once certified, companies can bid on contracts covered by the program as well as all other state contracts. More information about the program can be found at: http://www.das.state.ct.us/Purchase/SetAside/default. asp.
