The N.C. Department of Transportation is inviting small and disadvantaged business owners to upcoming workshops where they can learn about how to work with the state agency. As it did in July, the NCDOT will host another round of outreach meetings for disadvantaged business enterprises, or DBEs, at locations across the state on October 22nd. Businesses will get an opportunity to meet with NCDOT staff and learn about the many contracting opportunities available through the state agency. Each year, NCDOT advertises and awards contracts for construction, maintenance, emergency work, mowing, litter pickup, dead animal removal and traffic control. Disadvantaged businesses include small, minority-owned and women-owned businesses.
People gather July 23rd in Morrisville for NCDOT’s DBE workshop covering divisions 4 and 5
