Massachusetts Commission for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing Jane Sokol Shulman Chief Procurement Officer RE: SDP Plan Waiver Application on Deaf and Hard of Hearing Independent Living Services (DHILS)

Dear Jane, After reviewing your request for an SDP plan waiver on Deaf and Hard of Hearing Independent Living Services (DHILS) we are granting your request. We agree with your assessment that an SDP plan is not feasible due to provider’s fiscal hardships.

The goal of the SDP Program is to promote the use of diverse business in purchases of goods and services and to provide a forum for building relationships among vendors and diverse business, to the benefit of both parties.

Because of the specific circumstances of this opportunity, requiring an SDP Plan would not further the SDP mission and maybe detrimental to the solicitation/contract, posing hardships both the potential bidders as well as Massachusetts Commission for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing.

Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions about this waiver. Note that this waiver is limited to this bid only. Should you procure the same services in the future, a new SDP Plan waiver request must be submitted as each waiver is reviewed independently.

Sincerely, Katherine Thomas Buyer Engagement, Training and Policy Manager Supplier Diversity Office
