“The BNR facility is the second-largest infrastructure project after the under-construction water treatment facility in our city’s history, and ensuring that, as we grow the supplier network in these large projects, we mindfully engaged EBE/DBE organizations to be a part of that opportunity, which was important to the entire team at the City as well as the collective design consultant team, from the outset.”
