Project Reporting will provide an overview of high level information to the City project team, elected officials and the general public for:
•
Phase 1 and 2 construction of the NWC campus
•
City supporting efforts that inform the Phase 1 and 2 construction project (i.e. Economic Study, governance development, historic assessments)
•
Grant and partnership funding
•
All reporting required by the use of State Regional Tourism Act funding (administered by OEDIT and the Denver Urban Renewal
Authority)
• As needed, North Denver Cornerstone Collaborative (“NDCC”) work performed across the six portfolios of the NDCC (including the NWC project).
•
The scope of Project Reporting will address a “backward look” at work and expenditures for the NWC program and its related projects, to create a platform of transparency for the City on both NWC and NDCC deliverables
•
This work will not limit the ability of the successful team to pursue the upcoming Program/Project
Management RFP.
•
Project Reporting RFP is anticipated to be available in June 2016

Manager of Small Business Opportunity
Office of Economic Development

Division of Small Business Opportunities
DSBO
The Division of Small Business Opportunity (DSBO) is a part of the Office of Economic Development.
DSBO administers the Denver programs requiring small, women- and minority-owned business participation on construction projects and some purchasing acquisitions. To participate in the programs, contractors must be Certified by the City of Denver through DSBO.
DSBO administers the programs in an effort to level the playing field and ensure work in those areas identified in the City’s Disparity Study. This study shows where discrimination has occurred historically, and where the city programs can be of assistance in mitigating discrimination.
28

DSBO
Small business participation is counted by way of Goals that are set on each construction project. These goals are established by Goals Committees comprised of professionals in the industry, who meet every other week.
Goals are established by looking at the Scopes of Work on each project, in combination with the Capacity, or number of professionals available in the marketplace to perform the work. The Goals committees take into account the work to be done as well as the number of contractors available to perform. Goals are established and are made public as the project is advertised.
There is a strong Compliance element to the programs to ensure that contractors are fulfilling their commitments to Certified firms.
29

DSBO
To qualify as a Certified firm, ownership and financial requirements must be met.
To learn the requirements for becoming a Certified firm, please visit www.denvergov.org/dsbo or contact our offices at 720-913-1714.
