About the Webinar

Certain Public Construction projects require a percentage of the contract be completed with “Minority” Contractor Participation. When a material supplier accepts an order from a minority contractor on a public construction project, that minority contractor is most likely required to serve a “Commercially Useful Function (CUF).” If the minority contractor is not serving a CUF, they are deemed to be a “pass through” distributor. If a material supplier knowingly (and in certain cases unknowingly) accepts an order from a “pass through” distributor, then that goes against the spirit of the program and the material supplier may be subject to a fine or a lawsuit, or both. This session will help the attendees understand what steps they can take to spot pass through distributors, how to avoid the transaction, and legal insight.
