Department of Citywide Administrative Services, FY 2014
July 1, 2014
M/WBE Letter Grade
Letter Grade Overview
DCAS spent with almost every minority group in every industry. However, the agency failed to reach participation goals in all categories except construction services with Asian American businesses. Further, while nearly three-quarters of the agency’s procurement is in goods, DCAS did not procure at anywhere near the goal levels with any M/WBE in this category. As a result, its overall grade was a D.
