Adopted rule summary:
These Procurement Policy Board (PPB) Rule amendments update the provisions of the PPB Rules relating to “M/WBE Noncompetitive Small Purchases.” The amendments set forth in PPB Rule § 3-08 provide greater clarity regarding the M/WBE Small Purchase procurement method. While competition is not required for contracts awarded pursuant to this method, agencies often do utilize various forms of source selection in connection with M/WBE small purchase contracts to promote competition and in the best interests of the City. Renaming this method by removing the word “noncompetitive” from the title will reduce confusion amongst vendors and potential vendors regarding whether to expect potential competition in connection with contracts awarded through this method.
