17. MWBE/HUB Participation Opportunities
Partnerships / Associations / Teaming
Partnering with a PREQUALIFIED 1st tier Contractor to perform a specific scope of work.
- This is ideal as it alleviates potential problems that you might have with a 2nd tier with no bidding headaches.
- EXAMPLE: A large 1st Tier concrete Contractor partnering with a smaller MWBE firm that would do a select portion of the work on the large bid package. For example, concrete formwork installation - scopes are detailed & everyone has scopes covered & prices set prior to bid. This is similar to 2nd Tier but set with a particular Contractor ahead of the actual bid (2nd Tier is established).
2nd Tier / 3rd Tier
Working with a 2nd tier Contractor as a Subcontractor/Supplier/Vendor
– This generally involves bidding specific work to the 2nd tier with slightly more risk, as there is no guaranteed involvement on 2nd or 3rd tier level with the project.

18. MWBE/HUB Participation Opportunities
Mentor Protégé / Networking / Building Relationships
Working with a Contractor to learn more about a specific trade and to get guidance to build up trade knowledge and experience.
This serves to build new relationships, continue fostering present relationships and gain experience and understanding of how to best manage and work in a constantly changing market.
