- For DBE/ACDBE program purposes, there is no difference between certifications performed by Caltrans or any other certifying agency.
- Caltrans accepts DBEs certified by any of the CUCP certifying agencies.
- DBE Certificates are no longer issued (effective August 1, 2013). A printout from the DBE Database is sufficient proof of certification. Prime contractors should not require DBE certificates in bid packages.
- To confirm a firm's certification status, check the online directory or contact the certifying agency listed on the firm's profile.
National Ineligibility Database
The USDOT maintains a national online database of denied, decertified, or rejected DBE/ACDBE applicants. Grant recipients should query this database to ensure firms are eligible for DBE credits.
