Agency Change Agents have been hard at work completing their agency's M/WBE Participation Plans!

The plans are finalized when they have been reviewed by OMWBE and signed by the Agency Directors.  As completed plans are received, we will post them on the Agency Plans page.

State Agency Purchasers - Breakdown of Certified Firms for State Agency Purchasers. In response to Agency Change Agent requests, we have created a customized list of currently certified firms available for contracting with state agencies.  The categorized lists are broken down by NAICS code, including the number of available firms in each category, and are updated weekly.
