Employment of Local Businesses and Contractors: It is the desire of the Owner that local businesses--including disadvantaged, minority, and women enterprise subcontractors-- be given the opportunity to participate on the various parts of the Work. The Owner's encouragement of participation of disadvantaged, minority, and women enterprises and of locally owned businesses and contractors is not intended to restrict or limit competitive bidding or to increase the cost of the Work. The Owner supports a healthy, free market system that seeks to include responsible local businesses and provide ample opportunities for local business growth and development. In an effort to assist minority-owned businesses, Georgia law permits an income tax adjustment on the state tax return of any company that subcontracts with a certified minority-owned firm to furnish goods, property or services to the State of Georgia pursuant to O.C.G.A. 48-7-38. Suppliers should consult with their tax advisors to find out how to take advantage of these tax credits. The Owner reserves the right to reject any or all Bids. The Owner reserves the right to waive informalities and technicalities. Question Deadline 03/30/2023 at 10:00 AM ET
