As a result of Local Law 129 of 2005, City agencies aim to buy more goods and services from certified Minority and Women Owned Business Enterprises (M/WBE). This has created more opportunities for certified M/WBEs to bid on public contracts. We strive to increase awards to M/WBEs and include M/WBEs in all solicitations for micro and small purchases. For information, please contact Christine Norman at cnorman@dcas.nyc.gov. Additional details about the M/WBE certification process as well as a list of certified firms may be found at www.nyc.gov/getcertified.
