Greetings City of Oakland Certified Business\Vendor:
I am writing to inform you that we are in the process of revising and updating the City of Oakland’s Local Small Local Business Enterprise Program, in an effort to ensure diversity, equity, and inclusion in the City’s procurement of construction and professional services. You are invited to be a part of the broader conversation regarding the changes to the program as a certified Oakland business enterprise. We want to serve you and the Oakland Small Business Community better, and we need your participation to ensure the success of this endeavor.
A link to the draft Program document is provided above this page. We ask that you review the Program and submit your suggestions/recommendations to the email address certification@oaklandca.gov. Please be sure to include the contact information (contact name, address, and telephone #) for your company. A forum is being planned where you will have an opportunity to see and discuss the draft document which will reflect all of the recommendations received.
I am looking forward to your participation.
Expect Greater,
Mary M. Mayberry Interim Director
