Supporting Disadvantaged Business Enterprise Programs

What is the Federal DBE Program?

The Disadvantaged Business Enterprise Program (DBE) is a legislatively mandated USDOT program that applies to Federal-aid highway dollars expended on federally-assisted contracts issued by USDOT recipients such as State Transportation Agencies (STAs). The U.S. Congress established the DBE program in 1982 to:

  • Ensure nondiscrimination in the award and administration of DOT-assisted contracts
  • Help remove barriers to the participation of DBEs in DOT-assisted contracts
  • Assist the development of firms that can compete successfully in the marketplace outside of the DBE program
