This progress is measured, in part, by monitoring the extent of these groups participation on City contracts.

In addition, for the purpose of reporting the awards to certified firms on all city-related contracts, this report includes the dollars amounts awarded to certified Disadvantaged Business Enterprises (DBE) who participate in United States Department of Transportation funded contracts (listed separately in Appendix C).

4 Awards Summary FY2015 Certification Types Minority Business Enterprise (MBE) certification applies to firms owned and operated by minorities. MBE goals may be applied to any locally funded contract type. Women Business Enterprise (WBE) certification applies to firms owned and operated by females. As of July 1, 2013, pursuant to amendments to Chapter 15, Article V of the City Code of Ordinances, WBEs have been reinstated on construction contracts, therefore, WBE goals are now applied to any locally funded contract types. Small Business Enterprise (SBE) certification is race and gender neutral, and applies only to eligible firms in the construction industry. SBEs can be used, up to 4%, to meet contract specific subcontracting MWBE goals on construction related contracts. Persons with Disabilities Business Enterprise (PDBE) certification applies to eligible firms owned and operated by a disabled veteran or individuals with an existing medically determined physical or mental impairment of a chronic or permanent character. PDBE utilization may be used to augment citywide goals set by City Council. Most PDBEs have multiple certification types. At the time that a contract is awarded, the prime contractor determines which certification type will be utilized. In most cases, PDBEs are utilized as an MBE or SBE. Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) certification is a federal certification and applies to firms owned and operated by economically disadvantaged individuals. DBE goals apply only to U.S. Department of Transportation contracts that receive Federal financial assistance. Goal Oriented Contracts There are three types of goal-oriented contract and non-contract projects: construction, professional services and purchase of goods & services. These projects are goal-oriented, which requires utilization. The following are the types of goal-oriented contracts and their annual citywide goals set by City Council. Construction contracts are related to construction projects above $1M. The citywide goal for construction contracts is 34%. Professional Services contracts (also known as Regulated contracts) require a professional license e.g. architect, engineer, attorney, or accountant etc. The citywide goal for professional services contracts is 24%. Goods & Services* contracts provide for the supply of goods and non-personal or nonprofessional services above $100K. The citywide goal for goods & services contracts is 11%. The following are subcategories under goods & services contracts. These are non goal-oriented contract types and do not have citywide goals set by City Council. Note: the utilization of certified vendors on purchase orders and Pcards augments the citywide goal achievement percentage. Purchase orders and Pcard purchases are included in the goods & services total in this report. o o Purchase orders: direct orders for various purchases made from vendors. Pcard purchases: direct purchases from vendors using City of Houston purchasing cards Contracts with Waivers** are contracts that don t have a goal per Chapter 15, Article V, Section 15-83, these contracts must be reviewed and approved by the Office of Business Opportunity (OBO). The following reflect the most frequent circumstances under which OBO may approve a request to waive a contract goal: o o o Emergency Contracts - A public or administrative emergency exists which requires the goods or services being procured to be provided with unusual immediacy. Specialized Contract - If goods and services being procured are specialized, technical or of a unique nature as to require the contracting department to select its contractor without application of a goal. Economic Burden or Risk - If requiring a goal would impose an unwarranted economic burden or risk on the City or unduly delay acquisition of the goods or services, or is not in the best interest of the City. 4

5 Awards Summary FY2015 o o o o o No s available There are no s available in the market to perform the work required in the contract or who possess the specialized license or certification required to do the work. Interlocal Agreements/Cooperative Purchasing Agreements/DIR/HGAC - These are agreements the City enters into with other governmental entities in the interest of cooperatively sharing resources for their mutual benefit. Non Divisible - The contract cannot be divided to include the use of subcontractors. Sole Source - Contracts awarded to meet a need that can only be supplied from a firm that provides specialized and/or unique products or services. Direct shipment - Contracts where the goods are directly shipped to the customer. * As per the recommendation of Strategic Purchasing Division, Purchasing Contracts will be referred to as Goods & Services. The Report has been edited to reflect this change. **Departments are required to request a 0% goal from OBO, however, in some cases a department has requested a 0% goal directly from City Council. Non Goal-Oriented Contracts Construction contracts $1,000,000 or less and Goods & Services contracts $100,000 or less. These are contracts that do not require certified firms or a review from the Office of Business Opportunity. 5
