Procurement

Disadvantaged Business Enterprises

Recipients of EPA financial assistance agreements, including those issued under the Recovery Act, are required to seek and encouraged to use small, minority, and women-owned businesses ("disadvantaged business enterprises, or DBE's) for their procurement needs. Learn more about EPA's DBE program. EPA encourages DBEs to follow-up with Recovery Act financial assistance recipients so that they remain aware of procurement opportunities stemming from their Recovery Act-funded projects.
