This procurement includes Section 3 requirements under the HUD Act of 1968, with Section 3 Business Concerns encouraged to submit applications and potentially eligible for preference consideration. No incumbent vendors or specific current contractors are identified in the solicitation documents. The contract will be subject to all applicable Federal and State contract provisions prescribed by the funding agency, as well as compliance with civil rights, fair housing, disability access, and architectural barrier removal requirements.
