Narcisse asks about outside collection agencies and MWBE participation
Narcisse asks how many outside collection agencies are contracted with DOF and whether minority-owned businesses are used. Deputy Commissioner Hill confirms three agencies are contracted and MWBE requirements apply, though specific MWBE counts need to be confirmed.
Okay.
I'm going to shift a little bit here.
How many...
Usually, I mean, the in-house folks do better in some instances.
So I want to know how many current outside collection agency are contracted with DOFs to collect ECB's judgments administered?
Yes, there are currently three.
Outside agencies that are currently contracted to enforcement.
Any structure, do you use minority-owned businesses in that category?
How many you have?
Yes, I'll let our deputy commissioner answer specifics on the agencies.
Yeah, for the contract, we do have to use minorities.
It's sent out.
Yes, MWB.
Yes, we do use that.
How many?
We have three collection agencies, and we do use MWB.
How many do you have?
I don't get that part.
One, two, you have three or three minorities or one or two?
I don't have that data right in front of me.
If they're all minorities, I could definitely get back to you on that.
Okay.
