City Code Article 5, Subtitle 28
- SMBA&D oversees compliance with Subtitle 28 the Minority & Women’s Business Program (MWB Program) and Small Local Business Enterprises.
- This subtitle applies to all contracts awarded by the City. Article 5, § 28-4.
- The program works to remedy past discrimination in the City’s contracting process by prime contractors against minority and women’s business enterprises.
- This has resulted in the significant underutilization of minority and women’s business enterprises in contracts awarded by the City in the major contracting markets: construction, commodities, architectural, engineering, and professional services.
