Learn about County mandates for working with small, local and emerging businesses.
To promote the growth of our local economy, the County mandates prime vendors to work with smaller, local and emerging businesses in County contracts for goods and services.
Prime vendors are those who have been awarded a County contract.
When we work together, we all win.
Understand Participation Mandates
To ensure that small, local and emerging businesses get an opportunity to participate in County contracts, prime vendors that are not SLEBS are required to subcontract at least 20% of the total contract value to certified SLEBs.
That’s a big commitment to local business!
