The project <br />involves work for the following trade unions. After each trade union is an explanation of our <br />good faith effort to try and achieve minority participation. <br />- Masonry Repairs — Berglund Construction would self -perform 100% of this work. <br />However, we did research if there are any union subcontractors available in South <br />Bend who would be interested. None were able to be located and for that reason no <br />participation has been included. <br />- Concrete Repairs — Berglund Construction would self -perform 100% of this work. <br />However, we did research if there are any union subcontractors available in South <br />Bend who would be interested. None were able to be located and for that reason no <br />participation has been included. <br />- Window / Door Replacement — The project manual specified 3 manufactures to be <br />used. We reached out to these manufactures for approved installers that would be <br />minority. None were able to be located and for that reason no participation has been <br />included. <br />- Painting — The subcontractors that bid this work were not minority. For this reason, no <br />minority has been included. <br />- Roofing — Berglund Construction is signatory with the roofer's union. We were not <br />aware of any minority roofers in South Bend. For this reason, no minority was <br />included. <br />If any minority subcontractors become available, we would entertain partnering with them on <br />this project. However, at this time we are unable to provide any minority participation for the <br />reasons listed above. We feel that this substantially demonstrates our good faith effort. <br />Thank you, <br />John McHugh <br />J M/aw <br />w:sc;oawlrslw°) <br />
