Procurement or contract equity review
You are shaping a contract, grant, or procurement and want equity, accessibility, and language access built into the solicitation, evaluation, terms, and monitoring. By the end, you will have a procurement equity record: who the service reaches, requirements in the solicitation, evaluation criteria, contract reporting and access terms, monitoring by community, and the partners who own the rules.
Questions this topic covers
- We are drafting a request for proposals. Where do equity and accessibility requirements belong?
- How do we evaluate proposals for experience with the communities served without excluding smaller providers?
- What reporting should the contract require so we can see who is served?
