This Policy will apply to all MAWSS contracts which are subject to Alabama's competitive bid laws and which do not meet the $50,000 threshold for Alabama's Public Works Act and to the consultants who manage these contracts. If a contract is to be paid all or in part with non-MAWSS funds, and a funding entity has Contractor/Supplier Diversity program requirements that exceed or are more stringent than those of this Policy, then the additional Contractor/Supplier Diversity policy provisions of the funding entity or entities will also apply as contract requirements. Contracts which do not meet the dollar threshold for public advertisement for bids will be subject to MAWSS's Contractor/Supplier Diversity Policy 18-01. In the event that MAWSS must enter into a contract for a project or for services or supplies on an emergency basis, MAWSS will still seek competitive bids for the contract and will declare the nature of the emergency in writing and follow the Bid Law. MAWSS reserves the right to waive or modify the requirements of this Policy if the emergency is adversely affecting or presents and immediate threat to public health, safety, or the environment.
