(2) women-owned business enterprises; and
(3) minority- and women-owned business enterprises with justifications for such goals.
(c) Agency-specific goals shall be set upon a review of the scope, character and relevant expenditures associated with the State contracts that are expected to be let or performed during the relevant fiscal year and shall be based on specific factors concerning said State contracts, which shall include, where applicable, the following:
(1) statewide availability of minority- and women-owned business enterprises for construction, construction related services, non-construction related services and commodities contained within the disparity study and section 313(1) of article 15-A of the Executive Law;

(6) such other factors as the State agency can specifically delineate and justify with supporting facts and documentation.
