Report Title: Forest Preserves of Cook County Annual Business Diversity Report FY 2023
Report Period: 1/1/2023 - 12/31/2023
Summary: In July 2012, state legislation authorized the Forest Preserves of Cook County (the “Forest Preserves”) to establish provisions to address the underuse of minority and women-owned businesses with respect to procurement contracts. An ordinance establishing the program’s parameters and guidelines was passed in 2012 and amended in subsequent years by the Forest Preserves of Cook County Board of Commissioners. To remedy historic inequity and to facilitate greater inclusion, the Forest Preserves established aspirational contract goals for the participation of minority and women-owned businesses as set forth under the Forest Preserves of Cook County Code of Ordinances.
The Minority and Women-Owned Businesses program accomplishments in FY 2023 include 42% of awarded contracts; and 52% of contract payments were made to minor | | |
