For each MBE/WBE with whom a Contractor enters into a contract, the MBE/WBE
Identification Statement shall be completed. This form was designed by ACDS to obtain
information which it must report to the federal government on behalf of Anne Arundel County
regarding MBE/WBE participation in certain HUD programs. It is the only MBE/WBE
certification required for this project by ACDS and by HUD. However, some projects which are
partially financed by the State of Maryland may require a separate certification of a firm by the
Maryland Department of Transportation in order for the firm to count toward meeting the State’s
minority business participation goals for the project. If State funding of the project requires
Maryland Department of Transportation certification and any additional documentation, those
requirements will be stated elsewhere in the Contract.
