Approving Proposal Vendor DBE Commitments

The Approval tab of the Proposal Vendor DBE Summary component allows you to approve the proposal vendor's DBE commitment. You can view or change information in these fields:

• DBE Commitment Approval

• Approved By

• Approval Date

• Good Faith Effort

• Signed By

• Signed Date

• Revised Commitment Approved By

• Revised Commitment Approved Date

If your agency does not use external access, you can click in a field and add, change, or delete information as needed. Click Save when you are finished to apply your changes to the system. The system displays a message to confirm that your changes were saved in the database.

If your agency uses external access, fields on the Approval tab are read-only except for the Good Faith Effort field. The remaining data on the Approval tab is automatically maintained by the system as the DBE commitment is progressed through the external DBE commitment workflow. When a non-agency user successfully completes the guided process to sign the DBE commitment, the system enters that user's name in the Signed By field and the current date in the Signed Date field. When an agency user selects the Approve command, the system enters that user's name in the Approved By field and the current date in the Approval Date field.
