Executive Summary<br />

M/WBE availability level that would be observed in a non-discriminatory marketplace) will be<br />

equal to the actual current M/WBE availability rate, because the disparity ratio will equal 100.<br />

If there are adverse disparities facing M/WBEs in the relevant market area, however, as<br />

documented in Chapters V, VI, VII, <strong>and</strong> VIII <strong>of</strong> this Study, then expected availability will exceed<br />

actual current availability, because the disparity ratio is less than 100. Expected availability<br />

percentages for the City’s overall contracting <strong>and</strong> by major procurement category are presented<br />

below in Table D. Expected availability exceeds actual current availability in 20 <strong>of</strong> 28 cases<br />

examined.<br />
