The Department began its DBE race neutral program January 1, 2000. Contract specific goals are not placed on federal and state contracts; however, the Department has an overall 8.1% DBE race neutral goal it must achieve.  In order to assist contractors in determining their DBE commitment level, the Department has reviewed the estimates for this letting.  As you prepare your bid, please monitor potential or anticipated DBE participation on DOT-assisted contracts. When the low bidder executes the contract with the Department, information will be requested of the contractor's anticipated DBE participation for the project. While participation is not mandatory in order to be awarded the project, continuing DBE firms on contracts supports the success of Florida's voluntary DBE Program, and supports the contractors' Equal Employment Opportunity and DBE Affirmative Action Programs.

Any project listed as 0% DBE availability does not mean that a DBE may not be used on that project. A 0% DBE availability may have been established due to any of the following reasons: limited identified subcontracting opportunities, minimal contract days, and/or a small contract dollar amount. Contractors are encouraged to identify any opportunities to subcontract to DBEs.
