Exhibit 3 Department of Commerce
Minority Business Development Agency Budget Estimates Fiscal Year 2016
Executive Summary MBDA Mission Statement: To promote the growth of minority owned businesses through the mobilization and advancement of public and private sector programs, policy, and research. Department of Commerce Strategic Goals Supported by MBDA: The Minority Business Development Agency (MBDA) supports several Department of Commerce strategic goals and underlying objectives. Specific corresponding goals include: Trade and Investment: Expand the U.S. economy through increased exports and inward
foreign investment that lead to more and better American jobs.
Innovation: Foster a more innovative U.S. economy—one that is better at inventing, improving, and commercializing products and technologies that lead to higher productivity and competitiveness.
Environment: Ensure communities and businesses have the necessary information products, and services to prepare for and prosper in a changing environment.
Data: Improve government, business, and community decisions and knowledge by transforming Department data capabilities and supporting a data-enabled economy.
Operational Excellence: Deliver better services, solutions, and outcomes that benefit the American people.
MBDA’s primary contributions to the mission of the Department of Commerce are within the Strategic Goals: Trade and Investment and Innovation. The specific objectives within those Strategic Goals are to promote the vitality and competitiveness of our minority-owned businesses through exports and in fostering minority business advanced manufacturing. Business Problem and Statement of Economic Benefit: MBDA is the only federal agency tasked to create new jobs by expanding the U.S. economy though the nation’s 5.8 million minority-owned and operated businesses. The Agency fully supports Department of Commerce efforts to ensure the full participation of minority-owned businesses in the United States and global marketplaces. MBDA works to remove barriers to entry and open doors to economic opportunity. Likewise, the MBDA Strategic Growth Initiative has made progress providing performance dividends for minority businesses. Many high growth minority firms have successfully competed for larger prime contracts and financial awards, and have had a significant economic impact within the minority community and overall economy. MBDA successfully provides minority business development services to minority business enterprises through a network that includes MBDA staff and its funded centers. The MBDA staff and its network of funded centers provide management and technical assistance and offer business services to grow and expand minority owned and operated firms. These efforts build capacity by creating new jobs and retaining existing jobs.

Exhibit 3
Base Program: Within the single line appropriation, Minority Business Development, MBDA funds four base program activities with a total FY 2016 base budget estimate of $30 million and a Full-Time Equivalent (FTE) count of 70.
MBDA ($’s in thousands) FTE AmountFY 2015 Enacted 70 $30,000
Adjustments to Base 0 16FY 2016 Base 70 $30,016
Program Change 0 0FY 2016 Request 70 30,016
MBDA’s Four Base Program Activities: Minority Business Public Private Partnerships are MBDA’s network of funded centers,
(grantees) that operate under cooperative agreements. The network of MBDA Business Centers and Native American Business Enterprise Centers are comprised of for-profit entities, non-profit entities, state and local governments, tribal entities and institutes of higher learning. The centers provide an array of business counseling and development services to the minority business community and work in full collaboration with MBDA staff.
Minority Business Advocacy and Outreach is managed by MBDA’s Office of Legislative, Education and Intergovernmental Affairs. This group is responsible for establishing and maintaining positive relations between the Agency, Members of Congress, the White House, and other government entities; and, coordinating the Agency’s congressional and intergovernmental activity with the Department’s Office of Legislative and Intergovernmental Affairs.
Minority Business Policy and Oversight activities consist of the Office of the National Director which leads the Agency and is tasked with promoting the growth and competitiveness of minority-owned businesses nationwide.
Office of Native American Business Development is engaged in identifying opportunities in the areas of federal procurement, energy, manufacturing, international trade, and financial services for Native American constituencies. This office collaborates with other federal agencies, Indian Nations, and private industry to provide leadership in Indian economic development. Other activities include conducting outreach to private sector companies and other minority businesses to collaborate in building private and public partnerships for developing sustainable economies in Indian Country.
Total FY 2016 Budget Request: MBDA requests $30 million for critical funding to enable American minority owned businesses to realize $3 billion in contracts and financings and to create 7,500 new jobs. The FY 2016 budget request enables existing MBDA business centers to continue existing operations and to continue fostering innovation and entrepreneurship within the minority business community. MBDA’s efforts focused on domestic and international business continue to support the Administration’s efforts to create opportunities for the dramatically increasing domestic minority population.

Exhibit 12-15
Department of Commerce
Minority Business Development Agency Minority Business Development
PROGRAM JUSTIFICATION APPROPRIATION ACCOUNT: MINORITY BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT BUDGET PROGRAM: MINORITY BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT For FY 2016, MBDA requests a total of $30,016,000 and 70 FTE. This amount reflects an increase $16,000 for inflationary adjustments. BASE JUSTIFICATION FOR FY 2015 Within the single line appropriation, Minority Business Development, MBDA has four base sub-programs with a total FY 2016 budget estimate of $30,016,000 and a Full-Time Equivalent (FTE) count of 70. The four sub-programs are as follows: Minority Business Public Private Partnerships are MBDA’s network of funded centers
(grantees) that operate under cooperative agreements. The network of MBDA Business Centers is comprised of for-profit entities, non-profit entities, state and local governments, tribal entities and institutions of higher education. The centers provide an array of business counseling and development services to the minority business community and work in full collaboration with MBDA staff. Several business centers are specifically engaged in identifying opportunities in the areas of federal procurement, energy, advanced manufacturing, exports, and financial services for Native American constituencies.
Minority Business Policy and Oversight programs consist of the Office of the National Director and the Research and Knowledge Management unit. The Office of the National Director leads the Agency and is tasked with promoting the growth and competitiveness of minority-owned businesses nationwide.
Minority Business Advocacy and Outreach is managed by MBDA’s Office of Legislative, Education and Intergovernmental Affairs. This group is responsible for establishing and maintaining positive relations between the Agency, Members of Congress, the White House, and other government entities; and coordinating the Agency’s congressional and intergovernmental activity with the Department’s Office of Legislative and Intergovernmental Affairs.
Office of Native American Business Development is tasked with identifying opportunities in the areas of federal procurement, energy, manufacturing, international trade, and financial services for Native American constituencies. This office collaborates with other federal agencies, Indian Nations, and industry to provide leadership in Indian economic development. Other activities include conducting outreach to private sector companies and other minority businesses to collaborate in building private and public partnerships for developing sustainable economies in Indian Country.
MBDA - 11
Exhibit 12-15
MINORITY BUSINESS PUBLIC PRIVATE PARTNERSHIPS MBDA successfully provides business development services to minority business enterprises (MBEs) through a network that includes MBDA staff and grant-funded organizations generally referred to as MBDA Business Centers (MBCs). The MBCs are operated by independent private and public organizations. These entities compete under a public solicitation for MBDA grant opportunities. Selected candidates are offered multi-year awards under cooperative agreements. The network of private and public organizations that operate MBCs are comprised of for-profit entities, non-profit entities, state and local governments, tribal entities and institutions of higher education (including Minority Serving Institutions). The network of private and public organizations hires individuals in local communities to deliver business-specific services. The annual award for an MBC ranges from $225,000 to $500,000. The Minority Business Public Private Partnership program provides an array of business counseling and development services to the minority business community. MBCs work collaboratively with MBDA staff. MBDA collaboration expands the network of existing resources and strategic relationships for the benefit of MBDA MBE customers. As strategic partners, MBDA and the network of public and private partnerships are able to harness greater efficiencies, leading to increased performance. MBDA’s Public Private Partnership Program expands outreach and leverages third party resources. MBCs provide the following services to MBEs:
greater access to external resources like U.S. Export Assistance Center support and Manufacturing Extension Program resources through intradepartmental relationships
business counseling (also known as management and technical assistance); identification of market and contracting opportunities for minority firms; growth in the dollar values and numbers of actual contract awards to MBEs; capacity building through new jobs created and retention of existing jobs; expansion of the dollar value and number of financial awards to MBEs; increased access to equity, working capital, lines of credit, surety and performance
bonding, and other alternative sources of financing; assistance in expanding growth and global competitiveness; promotion of the advantages to achieving size and scale through teaming opportunities; training in management skills and business acumen for minority entrepreneurs; and assistance in gaining and maintaining access to profitable markets.
MBCs also leverage resources from outside the federal government. Recipients of MBDA grant awards contribute over $5.8 million in non-federal cost share. This level of commitment can only be obtained through outstanding public and private partnerships. MBDA and the centers work collaboratively with other local service providers such as local chambers of commerce, city council offices, local colleges and universities and other trade associations to effectively meet the needs of minority businesses. MBDA staff conduct 100% verification of all awarded transactions reported by its funded centers. MBCs continue to provide core program services that reach minority entrepreneurs across the country. These funded centers provide one-on-one and group consulting services in such areas as business counseling (i.e., management and technical assistance); deal facilitation and brokering services; marketing and growth strategies; teaming assistance; global expansion assistance; and assistance in obtaining contract and financial award opportunities. Designed to provide expanded
MBDA - 12
Exhibit 12-15
consulting and “hands-on” services, the MBCs primarily service ethnic minority firms, along with Native American, tribal entity, and minority-owned firms. Services include initial consultations and assessments, business technical assistance, and access to federal and non-federal procurement and financing opportunities.
The cooperative agreements (grants) are managed by a grants management team within MBDA’s Office of Business Development. The grants management team is centralized within MBDA headquarters and utilizes the NOAA Grants Online system to process and monitor grants. The grants management team works closely with NOAA grants officers and performs internal audits on each of the funded centers on an annual basis. MBDA’s Public Private Partnerships make up the core delivery system of MBDA’s services to the minority business community. Today, the minority population in the United States represents 35 percent of total U.S. population and is expected to represent 54 percent by 2050. According to the US Census Bureau’s 2007 Survey of Business owners, in 2007 there were 5.7 million minority-owned businesses (22% of all businesses) generating $1 trillion in gross receipts (9% of total gross receipts of classifiable firms) and employing 5.9 million paid workers. The U.S. needs strong minority-owned firms to achieve maximum economic growth for the Nation. Minority owned firms are an engine of employment growth and economic expansion in America and have the potential to contribute significantly to the balance of trade. MBDA is a catalyst to build minority-owned firms of size, scale and capacity. Structural barriers and discrimination have slowed the growth and expansion of minority-owned businesses resulting in economic inefficiencies. If minority-owned businesses reach entrepreneurial parity, they would represent 8.1 million firms, generating more than $3.4 trillion in gross receipts and employing 17.7 million workers.
MBDA - 13
Exhibit 12-15
Today, the importance of minority-owned businesses as a key component of U.S. international trade and innovation has never been greater. Minority-owned firms have the most favorable export attributes of any sector of the U.S. economy and represent the future of export growth. Minority-owned businesses are nearly twice as likely to export their products and services as non-minority owned businesses. Management teams of minority-owned businesses are six times more likely to transact business in a language other than English than non-minority business managers. Minority-owned businesses are three times more likely to generate 100 percent of their revenues from exporting than non-minority owned firms. Minority-owned firms are more likely to have international operations than non-minority owned firms in 14 of 19 key industry sectors. Minority-owned businesses are leaders in exporting in several key industries including wholesale trade, professional science, technical services, finance, and insurance. Minority-owned businesses make substantial contributions to exports in the manufacturing, retail trade, technology, and educational services MBDA supports the Department of Commerce’s various initiatives including: Look South, Doing Business in Africa, innovation, advanced manufacturing, exporting and job creation. The Minority Business Direct Client Services program ensures minority businesses participate in the Department’s initiatives and more importantly, contribute to the U.S. economy. These Department-wide initiatives rely on Agency involvement to communicate key information to a target constituency, recruit prospective participants, and provide technical support and service referrals. These services are important aspects to achieving success. However, entrepreneurs engage when opportunities are converted into actual deals. It is at the deal making level when investments are executed, local economies are improved, and jobs are created. This program augments the Department’s initiatives by assisting minority entrepreneurs in identifying high-value transactions and by facilitating partnerships, financing, and contracts. MBDA continues to leverage its resources and to expand minority business participation in the global marketplace. The Agency has formed partnerships with other government agencies such as the International Trade Administration (ITA), Small Business Administration (SBA), and National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), and minority business trade associations. MBDA and its partners engage with minority businesses, promote advantages of international trade, conduct education forums, and conduct business-to-business partnerships. The future growth of minority-owned businesses is dependent on accessing growth markets and resources necessary to penetrate those markets in real time. Given the broad geography, economic clusters, industries and different cultures that minority businesses are a part of, technology plays a key role in supporting the Agency’s programmatic success. MBDA reaches its staff, funded centers and the minority business community through the use of electronic commerce by promoting and providing business information that can assist minority businesses in these areas. The MBDA Minority Business Internet Portal (MBIP) is a menu driven, user-friendly system that assists clients with business development needs and information. The MBIP includes a variety of online resources that foster higher performance such as: Customer Relationship Management system, Partners.Net system, Phoenix/Opportunity On-line Bid-Matching system, Business Planner, Business Loan Analyzer, and the Capital Access business tool. MBDA also uses the Internet Portal as an information clearinghouse and national center for referral of minority-owned businesses of all sizes to the vast network of public and private business development resources. The MBIP is also a crucial part of the BusinessUSA effort as clients are able to easily navigate to MBDA’s portal and find out about MBDA tools and services.

Exhibit 12-15
MINORITY BUSINESS POLICY AND OVERSIGHT The Minority Business Policy and Oversight program consists of the Office of the National Director (OND), which leads MBDA. MBDA is tasked with promoting the growth and competitiveness of minority-owned businesses nationwide. By Executive Order 11625, MBDA: 1. Coordinates the plans, programs and operations of federal agencies to strengthen MBEs. 2. Promotes the mobilization of activities and resources of state and local governments,
businesses and trade associations, universities, foundations, and professional organizations towards the growth of MBEs.
3. Establishes a center for the development, collection, summarization, and dissemination of information for and about minority business.
4. Provides financial assistance to public and private organizations so they may render business consulting services to MBEs.
The Department Organization Order 25-4A (2005-04-07) prescribes the organization and assignment of major functions within MBDA, including the scope of authority and functions of the Office of The National Director: 1. The National Director serves as the Chief Executive Officer for the Agency. In consideration of
global and domestic market opportunities, innovations, and challenges, the National Director shall direct the formulation, implementation, and evaluation of policies and manage programs for all activities of the Agency.
2. The National Deputy Director is the principal assistant to the National Director and shall assist
in the day-to-day activities of the Agency. The National Deputy Director may supervise the Executive Staff in the formation and execution of the budget, personnel issues, program and operational activities. In the National Director's absence, the National Deputy Director or the National Director's designee shall serve as the Agency focal point for liaison with the Congress, White House, Office of the Secretary, and related organizations in coordination with appropriate Departmental officials.
MINORITY BUSINESS ADVOCACY AND OUTREACH The Minority Business Advocacy and Outreach program is managed by MBDA’s Office of Legislative, Education and Intergovernmental Affairs (OLEIA). OLEIA is responsible for establishing and maintaining positive relations between the Agency, Members of Congress, the White House, the Office of Management and Budget and intergovernmental associations. The OLEIA coordinates the Agency’s congressional and intergovernmental activity with the Department’s Office of Legislative and Intergovernmental Affairs. As part of the congressional and intergovernmental outreach efforts, OLEIA ensures that an effective two-way communication system exists to promote the Agency and minority businesses, and; provides timely responses to inquiries or requests for information, reports, or other assistance from Members of Congress and their staffs. This program ensures that the Agency is abreast of all legislation impacting the minority business community and provides analytical, legislative/policy reports to the Deputy National Director; and appropriately manages all intergovernmental activities.
MBDA - 15
Exhibit 12-15
OLEIA is also responsible for the development and implementation of an organized effort to build strategic alliances with public and private sector organizations, trade associations, institutions of higher education, business advocacy groups, and government offices at the federal, state and local levels. Activities associated with building strategic alliances include the hosting of stakeholder meetings, issue forums, and participation in stakeholder conferences, seminars and events. From these alliances and partnerships, MBDA creates and expands programs, services and opportunities in support of MBEs. As part of the Advocacy and Outreach program, OLEIA oversees the National Advisory Council on Minority Business Enterprise, an official federal advisory council. This program also allows the Agency to propose, evaluate and recommend national policies which affect minority business development. Key initiatives undertaken by OLEIA in support of this program include educational conferences and seminars such as the Minority Business Enterprise Summit and the National Minority Enterprise Development Week Conference. Two additional components to the Advocacy and Outreach program under the auspices of OLEIA are the Agency’s public affairs, communications, marketing and branding activities and the Agency’s executive secretariat function. This includes maintaining effective relationships with the media to promote the Agency’s programs, accomplishments and priorities; message development and promotional materials; content development for the Agency’s social media sites and website; and coordination of public affairs activities with the Department’s Office of Public Affairs. As the Agency’s executive secretariat, OLEIA serves as the focal point for all documents and correspondence directed to or issued by the Office of the National Director. OFFICE OF NATIVE AMERICAN BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT MBDA‘s Office of Native American Business Development (ONABD) is tasked with identifying opportunities in the areas of federal procurement, energy, manufacturing, international trade, and financial services for Native American constituencies. The ONABD collaborates with other federal agencies, Indian Nations, and industry to provide leadership in Indian economic development. The ONABD also conducts outreach to private sector companies and other minority businesses to collaborate in building private and public partnerships for developing sustainable economies in Indian Country. ONABD was mandated by Congress in 2001 following passage of the Native American Business Development, Trade Promotion and Tourism Act of 2000. Section 4(a)(1) of the Act (25 U.S.C. § 4301 et seq.) requires the establishment of an ONABD within the Department of Commerce. Section 4(b)(1) of the Act charges the ONABD with “the coordination of Federal programs that provide assistance…to eligible entities for increased business, the expansion of trade by eligible entities, and economic development on Indian lands.” Sections 5 and 6 of the Act require the ONABD to implement a Native American trade and export promotion program, and a Native American tourism program, respectively. Section 7 of the Act requires the Secretary of Commerce, in consultation with the ONABD, to report on an annual basis to the Senate Committee on Indian Affairs and the House Committee on Resources a summary of the activities of the ONABD in carrying out Sections 4 through 6 of the Act and any recommendations for legislation determined to be necessary to carry out Sections 4 through 6 of the Act. Section 4(a)(1) of the Indian Tribal Regulatory Reform and Business Development Act of 2000 (25 U.S.C. § 4301 note) requires the Secretary to establish an authority known as the Regulatory Reform and Business Development on Indian Lands Authority (Authority). As set forth in Section 4(a)(2) of the Act, the purpose of the Authority is to “facilitate the identification and subsequent removal of obstacles to investment, business development, and the creation of wealth with respect to the economies of Native American communities.” The membership of the Authority shall be
MBDA - 16
Exhibit 12-15
comprised of 21 members, of which 12 members shall be representatives of the Indian tribes recognized by the Bureau of Indian Affairs and no fewer than 4 members shall be representatives of non-governmental economic activities carried out by private enterprises in the private sector. The Authority is responsible for conducting “a review of laws (including regulations) relating to investment, business, and economic development that affect investment and business decisions concerning activities conducted on Indian lands” and for preparing and submitting a report to the Senate Committee on Indian Affairs, the House Committee on Resources, and to the governing body of each Indian tribe a report that includes the Authority’s findings and recommendations, including proposed revisions to the laws and regulations reviewed by the Authority. (See Sections 4(d) and 5 of the Act.) In March 2003, the Secretary of Commerce delegated to MBDA his authorities and responsibilities under the Native American Business Development, Trade Promotion, and Tourism Act of 2000 and under the Indian Tribal Regulatory Reform and Business Development Act of 2000. MBDA established the ONABD within the Agency’s Office of Business Development in June 2005. The Department Organization Order 25-4A (2005-04-07) prescribes the organization and assignment of major functions within MBDA, including the scope of authority and functions of the Office of Native American Business Development. Per the order, the Office of Native American Business Development shall: ensure the coordination of Federal programs that provide assistance, including financial and technical assistance to eligible entities for increased business, the expansion of trade by eligible entities, and economic development on Indian lands. The Department of Commerce has never received appropriated funds to implement the Native American Business Development, Trade Promotion, and Tourism Act of 2000 or to implement the Indian Tribal Regulatory Reform and Business Development Act of 2000. As a result, MBDA directed the use of base resources in support of establishing an expert appointment. An ONABD expert liaison was selected and hired in 2005 to execute ONABD activities. MBDA has provided infrastructural support and a nominal discretionary budget to support outreach activities nationally since FY 2005. However, due to limited budgetary and human resources, the ONABD has not engaged in any activities under the Indian Tribal Regulatory Reform and Business Development Act of 2000.
