MD WORKS WAIVER 20260229 (no action needed).pdf

This is a waiver letter from Maryland Works, an Employment Works Program provider, addressed to the Maryland Department of Transportation (MDOT) Office of Maintenance Contract and Procurement Division regarding highway services contracts in Maryland. The letter notifies MDOT that Maryland Works will not pursue completion of the referenced MDOT Highway Services contract opportunity, identified by multiple service codes (403, 406-7, 410-11, 413, 415-17, 424, 426-29, 432, 437, 440, 442, 449, 459, 477, 479, 492, 499, 509, 527-28, 549, 551, 557, 580), through the Employment Works Program during the period from March 1, 2025, through February 29, 2026. The specific contract opportunity relates to permanent highway patching services in Talbot County.

Maryland Works CEO Mary Manzoni indicates that while the organization is declining to pursue this opportunity for the current contract term, the Employment Works Program intends to review and potentially pursue this contract opportunity again beginning March 1, 2026, when it becomes available. The letter represents a waiver of the current opportunity and establishes future interest for the subsequent contract cycle, acknowledging MDOT's continued partnership with the Employment Works Program.
