M/WBE Letter Grade

Letter Grade Overview

DoITT improved procurement with Woman-owned businesses in the standard services category this year. DoITT also hosted procurement fairs for M/WBE firms and posted more information about M/WBE opportunities on their website. These efforts to connect with the M/WBE community may have contributed to DoITT achieving a D grade this year, up from its failing grade last year.
