The contract seeks the development of a formal Diversity and Inclusion Plan aimed at promoting equitable opportunities within subcontracting practices, with a specific focus on coordinating engagement with Minority Business Enterprises, Women Business Enterprises, and HUBZone-certified subcontractors. The effort requires the creation of structured strategies and implementation measures to ensure compliance with diversity objectives, including outreach, recruitment, and ongoing support for underrepresented businesses throughout the project lifecycle. The work must align with broader goals of inclusive economic development and transparent subcontracting processes. The solicitation is classified as a subcontract under NAICS code 541611, indicating a focus on management consulting services, and is open for response until July 30, 2024. It is issued by La Marque in Texas, though no specific city or office address is provided. The contract does not specify a set-aside type or agency organization details, but it emphasizes practical coordination rather than direct service delivery, requiring the contractor to act as a liaison between the agency and qualifying subcontractors to foster accountability and measurable progress in diversity outcomes. All proposals must be submitted via the provided civic platform link.
