MWBE Participation Coordination

The contract titled MWBE Participation Coordination requires the identification, onboarding, and ongoing management of Minority and Women-Owned Business Enterprise subcontractors to support the Florence Lane Pump Station Piping Upgrades project. The successful vendor will be responsible for tracking all payments made to these subcontractors, monitoring employment hours to ensure adherence to stated goals, and maintaining full compliance with the City of Hartford’s SC/MWBE certification standards, despite the contract being issued by the Tualatin Valley Water District in Oregon, which may indicate a misalignment in jurisdictional requirements. The solicitation is open for responses until August 12, 2026, with a NAICS code of 541611 indicating management consulting services, suggesting the work involves administrative oversight rather than direct construction. The contract is classified as a subcontract and does not include a set-aside designation, meaning it is open to all eligible bidders without preference based on business size or ownership type. Performance location details are unspecified, but the work is tied to a specific infrastructure project in Oregon, and all activities must align with the administrative and reporting obligations outlined under Hartford’s MWBE program despite the geographic discrepancy.
