Be aware of fake MDOT texts demanding toll or traffic ticket payments. MDOT does not operate any toll roads. Contact the Michigan Attorney General for information on how to identify scams and file a complaint.
MDOT's Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) Program is a federally required program designed to ensure that firms owned and controlled by socially and economically disadvantaged persons have the opportunity to grow and become self-sufficient through participation in federally funded MDOT contracts.
MDOT has developed a race- and gender-neutral Small Business Program (SBP) to ensure that small businesses, including DBE-certified businesses, have opportunities to participate on MDOT projects.
DBE and SBP businesses in the program will be among a limited group of firms eligible to participate in selected federally-assisted contract opportunities set-aside by MDOT.
