Disadvantaged Business Enterprise Plan

The objectives of the Disadvantaged Business Enterprise Program are:

To ensure nondiscrimination in the award and administration of DOT-assisted contracts in the Departments highway, transit, and airport financial assistance programs;
To create a level playing field on which DBEs can compete fairly for DOT-assisted contracts;
To ensure that the Departments DBE program is narrowly tailored in accordance with
applicable law;
To ensure that only firms that fully meet 49 CFR Part 26 eligibility standards are permitted to participate as DBEs; to help remove barriers to the participation of DBEs in DOT-assisted contracts;
To assist the development of firms that can compete successfully in the market place outside the DBE program; and
To provide appropriate flexibility to recipients of federal financial assistance in establishing and providing opportunities for DBEs.
