Managed Competition/ Preliminary Statements of Work (PSOW) Process
Following voter approval of the Managed Competition Ballot item in November 2006 the City Council is now responsible for ensuring that service quality is maintained through all managed competition processes in accordance with the City Charter. To provide Council the opportunity to review service levels under consideration by the Mayor's Office, in July 2008 the IBA proposed a municipal code change which required the Mayor to bring forward to City Council, for review and approval, Preliminary Statements of Work (PSOW) for all managed competitions.
