§ 69.804. Contracting recommendations.
The Commission recommends that major jurisdictional utilities and major telecommunications utilities strive to take maximum efforts to provide that minority/women/persons with disabilities/LGBTQ/veteran-owned businesses have an equal opportunity to compete for the purchase of equipment, supplies, services, fuels, materials, construction, professional services, advertising, and the like. The Commission encourages each major jurisdictional utility and each major telecommunications utility to develop a diversity program which is designed to provide that a fair proportion of products and services contracts are offered to minority/women/persons with disabilities/LGBTQ/veteran-owned businesses. It is recommended that each major jurisdictional utility and each major telecommunications utility adopt the general guidelines in § § 69.805—69.808 in the development or enhancement of their diversity program relative to contracting for goods and services.
