Historically underutilized businesses, minority-owned businesses, and women owned-businesses:
UW System campuses purchase goods and services through State Procurement. The State of Wisconsin is committed to the involvement of minority and veteran-owned business enterprises in the state's procurement program. UW - Stevens Point follows the State's purchasing policy which allows the campus to award contracts to certified minority or veteran-owned businesses who submit the lowest qualified bid when that qualified bid is not more than 5% more than the apparent low bid.
“Enacted in 1983, Wisconsin’s Minority Business Enterprise (MBE) law sets a 5% MBE procurement goal for state agencies and offers a 5% price preference for certified minority firms that compete for State contracts. The 5% goal applies to all State purchases with the exception of DOT, Federal Surface Transportation Assistance Act and DNR EPA funds.”
