TOTALS AZZ 310 M6 100% Based upon preliminary estimates of the quantity of each type of work for the 2003-2004 CIP Projects, a determination was made of the anticipated dollar amount of federal funds applicable to each NAICS category. A percentage -of -work factor was then assigned to each of the general categories in relation to the anticipated portion of federal dollars to be spent for each NAICS. The Caltrans DBE directory for District 08 was utilized to determine the number of "available , willing & able" DBE's within the district who currently perform the type of work included in each of the general categories (NAICS) listed in Table 2, above. A base figure for each of the three major categories was then calculated by first multiplying the determined percentage -of -work factor by the number of applicable DBE firms available in District 08. The result was then divided by the number of all "ready willing & able" contractors from the same District 08 area, as garnered from the 2000 U.S. Census data. A separate calculation was generated for each particular NAICS (and combination of related WCC), the resultant decimal factors were added together and expressed as a percentage to arrive at the final Base Figure DBE Goal of 18.4%. The calculation process is detailed in Table 3: TABLE 3 Base Figure = .48(154) + .40(81) + .12016) 356 121 181 Base Figure= .2076 + .2678 + .0769 = .1841 Base Figure = (.1841) 100 = 18.41 = 18.4% STEP 3: Adjusting the Base Figure: An investigation into the past and recent past DBE participation in the construction of Colton's DOT funded, DOT -assisted or otherwise federally funded CIP projects was conducted. The resultant The most recent federally assisted project awarded in Colton, was the CD8G Street & Alley .1mprovement Project - Construction of Fill -In Znfrastructure Zwprovemenfs & Pavement Rehabilitation. Comprised of five (5) separate Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) projects, and carrying a DBE Goal of 10.3% for minority participation and an additional 1. 1 % for female participation, the bid was awarded at $1,082,563. The Scope of Work for said project is consistent with that of the CIP Projects listed in Table 1. 2. A complete set of Good Faith Efforts were submitted by the successful Contractor indicating that advertising for DBE firms was placed in all available newspapers, trade publications and posted in appropriate physical locations, and that a substantial number of DBE firms had been directly solicited by phone and fax. Documentation for numerous quotes received from certified DBE firms, manufacturers and suppliers was also submitted; those submitting viable, competitive, cost-efficient quotes were utilized. 3. The DBE Goal Attainment for the above -noted Project was met by the successful contractor. 2
