On or before May 1 of each year, each agency shall publish on its agency's website its procurement forecast listing all known and anticipated procurements to be made by the agency in the upcoming fiscal year; to include, an estimate of the specific supplier diversity requirements and goals for each procurement.
(b)
When an agency is determining a procurement officer's evaluation or whether a procurement officer is eligible for a merit increase or performance-based promotion for the procurement officer or procurement related employee responsible for county procurement on behalf of the agency, the agency shall consider the efforts of the procurement officer or procurement related employee to assist the agency in meeting the supplier diversity and local hiring goals and requirements for the agency's procurements in accordance with this Subtitle.
(c)
At the discretion of an Agency or department director, if an agency does not meet an agency supplier diversity goal set pursuant to this Subtitle, the agency's procurement officer or procurement related employee procuring goods and services on behalf of that agency:
(1)
May not receive any merit increase or promotion based on their performance during any fiscal year in which the goal is not met and there is no improvement over the previous fiscal year toward meeting that goal; and
(2)
If there is no improvement toward meeting the goal over three (3) consecutive fiscal years, may have their employment with the agency terminated or be reassigned to a position that does not include involvement with the agency's procurement activities, provided that this does not preclude an agency from taking these employment actions prior to the three fiscal year period.
