ABOUT US
The Governmental Committee was founded in 1995 and determined to:
* Serve as a resource for technical assistance and business development for DBEs
* Act as a sounding board for ideas to strengthen DBE polices
* Share contracting information and opportunities
This group of city, county, state and federal governmental agency representatives met to discuss the challenges of implementing successful DBE programs within their respective organizations.
​
The methods utilized to announce contracting opportunities now include our website and e-mail blasts however, true to our original purpose, the importance of face-to-face networking among agency representatives and the business community remains a primary goal and the measure of success for the Committee.
