What is the city proposing?

Boston proposes launching an inter-agency Inclusive Procurement Council (“IPC”). The IPC would be tasked with developing and implementing specific procurement improvements- to draw on both policy and operation expertise, and would be open to outside entities such as anchor institutions.
