      Council Member Brooks Powers inquires about the Department of Design and Construction's (DDC) outreach efforts for Minority and Women-Owned Business Enterprises (MWBEs), specifically focusing on the prequalified list (PQL) and mentorship programs. The discussion includes how DDC conducts quarterly information sessions to educate MWBE construction firms on PQL and collaborates with Small Business Services (SBS) to assist with applications. Additionally, she questions the frequency of the prequalified list's usage for construction projects under $3 million.
