The Massachusetts Department of Transportation (MassDOT) is committed to equal opportunity in all of its programs, services, and activities, including its highway contracts. In accordance with the 23 CFR 230, Subpart B, and the 49 CFR 26.51, MassDOT's Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBESS) Program provides direct support and technical assistance to historically underutilized businesses owned by minorities and women seeking to compete, on an equal basis, for highway contracts and subcontracts.
