The Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) Program was created to provide a
level playing field for small minority- and women-owned companies wanting to do
business with TxDOT and other agencies receiving federal funds from the U.S.
Department of Transportation (USDOT). Businesses interested in becoming
certified as a DBE must complete and submit an
application
[pdf, 30 pages, 357kb]
through the Texas Unified Certification Program (TUCP) to the
appropriate certifying agency in Texas. Upon
approval, these companies can be used to meet the DBE goals established for
federally-funded contracts. The DBE Program is a federal program required
by law (49CFR Part 26).
