What is a contract-specific goal?
A18: A contract-specific goal is established on an individual DOT-assisted opportunity. The MBTA′s Office of Diversity and Civil Rights′ Government Compliance Unit (Unit) reviews all MBTA procurements to determine DBE participation goals, if applicable. The Unit will establish contract goals only on DOT-assisted contracts with identifiable subcontracting opportunities to ensure DBEs have an equal opportunity to participate in MBTA procurements.
