2 Background Triennial goal Federal Transit Administration Federal Fiscal Years Federal Highway Administration California Department of Transportation FY % (3.0% race neutral & 9.5% race conscious) 2

3 Goal Setting Methodology Step One Base Figure Relative availability of ready, willing and able DBEs Weighted availability of DBEs Step Two Adjustments Capacity of DBEs to perform work Statistical disparities (utilization, financing, bonding) Barriers to DBEs to form, grow and compete Past participation Input from interested parties (trade groups) 3

4 Step One Base Figure Establishing the Base Figure by the numbers 44 DBEs in heavy construction / 300 firms total (DBE and Non-DBEs 14 DBEs in trucking / 150 firms total (DBEs and non-dbe) 44 DBEs in heavy construction + 14 DBEs in trucking = = 12.8% 300 firms in heavy construction firms in trucking 4

5 Sample Step One Computation TABLE ONE FTA Contracting Opportunities Project Description NAICS Description FTA Funds Sidewalk, public, construction 200, Pile driving 3,300,000 Poured Concrete Foundation and Structure Contractors 4,500, Rebar contractors 1,250,000 Decorative steel and wrought iron work ,000 installation Project A 11,340, Electrical Contractors 100, Waterproofing contractors 50,000 Site Preparation Contractors (excavation and backfilling) 500, Specialized Freight 80, Traffic control services 60, Program and construction management 1,200,000 5 TABLE TWO NAICS Description FTA Funds % of FTA funds Sidewalk, public, construction 200, % Poured Concrete Foundation and Structure Contractors 4,500, % Rebar contractors 1,250, % Decorative steel and wrought iron work installation 100, % Electrical Contractors 100, % Waterproofing contractors 50, % Pile driving 3,300, % Site Preparation Contractors (excavation and backfilling) 500, % Specialized Freight 80, % Traffic control services 60, % Program and construction management 1,200, % TOTAL FTA FUNDS 11,340, %

6 Sample Step One Computation (cont.) TABLE THREE DBE Weighted by FTA Dollars NAICS CUCP DBEs U.S. Census CBP DBE % of FTA funds Weighted DBE Sidewalk, public, construction % Poured Concrete Foundation and Structure Contractors % Rebar contractors % Decorative steel and wrought iron work installation % Electrical Contractors % Waterproofing contractors % Pile driving % Site Preparation Contractors (excavation and backfilling) % Specialized Freight % Traffic control services % Program and construction management % TOTAL % 9.46% Base figure = 9.5% (rounded) 6

7 Weighting Weighting is encouraged, but not required by rule, to ensure Step One Base Figure is as accurate as possible Ex.: 90% of contract dollars in heavy construction and 10% in trucking 5

8 Step Two Adjustment Adjusting the Base Figure Step Two of the goal setting calculation process is intended to adjust your Step One Base Figure to make it as precise as possible Factors to consider: past participation (the volume of work DBEs have performed in recent years) or other measure of demonstrated capacity; evidence from disparity studies conducted in your market area (including relevant studies commissioned by other contracting agencies in your market area); statistical disparities in the ability of DBEs to get financing, bonding and insurance; data on employment, self-employment, education and training, union apprenticeship programs; and any other data that would help to better measure the percentage of work that DBEs would be likely to obtain in the absence of discrimination. 8

9 Sample Step Two Adjustment TABLE FOUR STEP TWO: Adjusted DBE Weighted by FTA Dollars NAICS CUCP DBEs U.S. Census CBP DBE % of FTA funds Weighted DBE NAICS Disparity Study SBO W/MBE % of FTA funds Weighted Sidewalk, public, construction % % Poured Concrete Foundation and Structure Contractors % % Rebar contractors (Work Code C5201) % % Decorative steel and wrought iron work % installation % Electrical Contractors % Construction % Waterproofing contractors % % Pile driving (Work Codes C0649, C4901, C4906) % % Site Preparation Contractors (excavation and backfilling) % % Specialized Freight % % Traffic control services % % Program and construction management % Professional % Services TOTAL % 5.01% % Adjusted DBE figure = 5% Significant adjustment for lack of DBE availability 9

11 DBE Participation Challenges Market areas or trades that have little or no DBE participation Services: Boring Construction management for water-related activities Dredging Ferry terminal construction Float and pier construction and repairs Pavement marking, striping Pest control services Pile driving & drilling, including micropiles, caissons, drilled piers, cast-in-drilled-hole (CIDH) piles Precast concrete Pressure grouting Rebar (re-enforcing steel) Ship or vessel building or repair Shoring, including sheet piling Towing Railway track work, including rail welding Vehicle repair/maintenance services Vessel engineering services Products/Material: Bus replacement parts Gases/Oil/petroleum products 11

12 Trade Group Interest & Support Underserved NAICS categories Why lack of DBE availability Mutual support Importance of DBE certification Significant gap between currently certified DBEs and firms that are potentially certified as DBEs DBE program improvements Incentivize subcontracting how to increase DBE participation and build DBE capacity 12
