Our
Challenge
The City of Orlando's Minority and Business Enterprise Program is designed
to ensure equal contracting opportunities for Minority and Women Business
Enterprises (M/WBE). We focus on advocacy and providing timely information
to our M/WBE's to maximize opportunities for meaningful involvement in all
areas of contracting. Our greatest challenge is to continue to educate and
provide resources to minority and women owned firms, thus enabling them
to become more competitive and self-sufficient. Learn more at Program

participate on City contracts at a level that represents or exceeds their
availability in the industry.
