A brief description of how the institution meets the criteria:
The University of the District of Columbia is an independent agency of the District Government. DC government does not have a women, mintority or underutilized business program. Instead it has a Certified Business Enterprise program to promote the use of local businesses. Businesses with CBE certification receive preferred procurement and contracting opportunities. The District directs spending to these DC-based businesses that support and contribute to job creation and the city tax base, which in turn results in a much stronger local economy. Each agency, including an agency that contracts or procures through the Office of Contracting and Procurement (OCP), must exercise its contracting and procurement authority so as to meet, on an annual basis, the goal of procuring and contracting 50% of the dollar volume of its goods and services, including construction goods and services, to Small Business Enterprises.
