WHO WE ARE

WHAT WE DO
The DBE Supportive Services Center provides business development services to DBE firms to enable them to acquire the proficiency, experience and expertise necessary to compete on an equal basis, with non-DBE firms for federally-assisted PennDOT contracts and subcontracts.
WHERE WE WORK
The DBE Supportive Services Center operates across the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania providing DBE firms with regional access to trainings, workshops, networking events. DBE Supportive Services Project Coordinators are available to make site visits and offer one-on-one assistance.
