The fiscal year 2009 DBE aspirational goal is 33%.
DFW also is committed to assisting in the identification of qualified D/M/WBE’s to bid or propose on Airport projects. The Airport offers resources for D/M/WBE’s seeking business opportunities with DFW and for prime contractors that need assistance in meeting the Airport Board’s DBE and M/WBE program requirements.
DFW Airport utilizes an effective outreach program to disseminate information pertaining to upcoming opportunities/solicitations to the D/M/WBE community. Technical assistance to D/M/WBE’s through established outreach programs such as Quarterly Vendor Workshops, Surety Support Initiative, Small Contractor Development Training Workshop, DBE and M/WBE certification and others are also offered.
Prime contractors can be provided with a listing of certified D/M/WBE’s to be considered for subcontracting opportunities. If a prime contractor utilizes an D/M/WBE firm that has not been certified by the Airport Board, DFW Airport can assist the applicant in expediting the certification process.
If you are a prime contractor/consultant and need assistance in satisfying the Board’s DBE or M/WBE program requirements or if you are a D/M/WBE firm and need assistance in introducing your goods and/or services, contact DFW Airport’s Business Diversity & Development Department by phone at 972 973 5500 or by e-mail at
