Disparity Study Launch on behalf of Palm Beach and Griffin & Strong
PALM BEACH COUNTY, Fla., Sept. 26, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Palm Beach County has contracted with Griffin & Strong (G&S) to conduct a Disparity Study to determine if willing and able minority- and women-owned businesses are significantly underutilized in construction, professional services, and goods and services contracts awarded by the County and if so, the extent to which such disparities may be attributed to discrimination.
