We were in attendance at the first advertised pre -bid meeting. We were <br />not made aware of the second Pre -Bid meeting until the night before the <br />meeting and we were unable to attend. <br />2. Based on more than 15 years of experience working in North Central <br />Indiana, we've found advertising to provide no additional quotes from <br />M/WBE Vendors. We are constantly identifying and increasing our sub list <br />to gain as much involvement from qualified M/WBE firms. The limited <br />number of contractors able to provide services required for this specialized <br />work also reduces the need to advertise, as we maintain regular <br />communication with all M/WBE firms who are able to work with us. <br />3. MBE/WBE Firms were contacted via email as shown on our included <br />spreadsheet. Plans and Specifications were made available for review on <br />our online planroom and all subcontractors contacted received a link to <br />this site. ITUSA works regularly with M/WBE firms and they were <br />contacted to increase interest in this project. <br />GOOD FAITH NEGOTIATIONS <br />We select our sub -contractors based solely on the price of their quote. As <br />we are expected to provide the lowest bid to win a project, we require the <br />same from our sub -contractors. <br />SMALL CONTRACTS <br />We broke the work up into the standard divisions utilized on all CIPP <br />projects. The scope of the work reduces the opportunity for MBE/WBE <br />utilization as we are able to self perform work for less cost than most sub- <br />contractors. <br />CONTRACT RECORDS <br />1. All MBEA(VBE information requested in this section has been provided on <br />the included spreadsheet. <br />
