City of Phoenix Business Capacity Survey

An Availability and Disparity Study was commissioned by the City of Phoenix to determine whether there are barriers that impact the ability of small and disadvantaged businesses to participate in federally assisted contracts from July 1, 2017, to June 30, 2023 in the City’s market area.
