Do I have to complete the Affirmative Action paperwork every time I submit a bid?

Answer: No. If you are currently in compliance with the city's affirmation action requirements, it is not necessary to submit affirmative action paperwork with your bid. Firms are also responsible for maintaining their eligibility during the life of any contract and failure to do so may result in termination of the contract.

Any questions in regard to this Affirmative Action Program should be directed to the Affirmative Action Contractor Compliance Section of the Equal Opportunity Department, (602) 262-6790. The City of Phoenix extends to each individual, firm, vendor, supplier, contractor and subcontractor an equal economic opportunity to compete for City business. Successful majority firms are expected to use disadvantaged, minority-owned and women-owned businesses in the subcontracting and purchasing of services and commodities that reflect the business community ethnic composition.
