The Honorable, The Legislature:
I am proud to provide this report to you documenting that for the first time in the 25-year history of the Minority Business Enterprise (MBE) program, we surpassed the five percent goal. In fiscal year 2008, state government close to $95 million, or 5.87 percent, with MBE firms for products, services, facilities and highways. This is the largest amount spent with minority businesses in the program's history, as well.
Over the past four years we continually made progress in improving the participation of certified minority-owned firms in providing services and products for state government. Through you leadership on this issue, we have finally reached a significant milestone in the program.
State agencies will work to build on our success. We will continue to push for better and more effective way s to open access to minority-owned businesses who are interested in doing business with the state, including our work with your Business Opportunity Advisory Commission to improve the program.
We will continue to focus on providing opportunities for minority-owned businesses to compete for state contracts and to help minority entrepreneurs grow and succeed.
Sincerely,
michael l. morgan
Secretary
