For the purpose of determining compliance with the goal requirements established in this ordinance, businesses will be counted as MBE or WBE only when they have been certified as such prior to a recommendation for award being made to the City Council. a) Any business listed by an Offeror that is not certified at the time of bid/response opening must file an application for certification within a reasonable time for the City to consider the dollar amount towards meeting the goal. b) If a business described in the immediate subparagraph fails to submit an application for certification within a reasonable time, or if the business is denied certification, the Offeror shall be afforded five (5) City business days to _ se�tue additional certified/certifiable MBE/WBE participation, starting the next City business day following the day the written notification was received from the Managing Department. c) Evidence of the additional certified/certifiable MBENVBE participation shall be delivered to and received by the Managing Department within five (5) City business days after the notification was received by the Offeror, exclusive of the date that the notification was received. 2. Except as provided for in paragraph 3 below, if the Offeror is ruled non- responsive to the requirements of this ordinance, the Managing Department will provide written notification to the Offeror stating the specific basis for the ruling. The Offeror may submit documentation that it will either meet or exceed the stated goal, and may be considered for an award of contract. 3. If the Offeror is ruled non-responsive solely for its failure to identify a subcontract/supplier opportunity and that opportunity is less than three (3%) percent of the total bid, the Offeror may submit documentation that an MBE/WBE will be utilized for that subcontract/supplier opportunity, and may be considered for an award of contract. 4.

The GFE documentation shall demonstrate the Offeror's commitment and honest efforts to utilize MBE or WBE. The burden of preparing and submitting the GFE information is on the Offeror and will be evaluated as part of the responsiveness to the bid/proposal. An Offeror who intentionally and/or knowingly misrepresents facts on the documentation submitted will constitute a basis for classification as non-responsive and possible debarment. 5. The contracting department may request the MBE/WBE Office to waive the goal requirements of this subsection, or to reduce the amount of the goal, in accordance with the provisions of the Exceptions and Waivers section. D.
