Brown IV, Interim CEO and General Manager DC Water Compliance EPA Fair Share Objectives Good Faith Efforts Six (6) Affirmative Steps (or Six (6) Positive Steps), which are steps that must be undertaken by DC Water and contractors to inform MBEs/WBEs and encourage their participation. These steps include the following: A. Ensure DBEs were made aware of contracting opportunities to the fullest extent practicable through outreach and recruitment activities. B. Make information on forthcoming opportunities available to DBEs and arrange time frames for contracts and establish delivery schedules, where the requirements permit, in a way that encourages and facilitates participation by DBEs in the competitive process (including posting solicitation information for a minimum of 30 calendar days before the bid date). C. Consider in the contracting process whether firms competing for large contracts could subcontract with DBEs. This included dividing total requirements when economically feasible into smaller tasks or quantities to permit maximum participation by DBEs in the competitive process. D. Encourage contracting with a consortium of DBEs when a contract is too large for one of these firms to handle individually. E. Use the services and assistance of the Small Business Administration (SBA) and the Minority Business Development Agency (MBDA) of the Department of Commerce. F. Require prime contractors, when subcontracts are being let, to undertake the affirmative steps A through E listed above. 10
