Chapter 4 - § 4.19 • MBE|WBE|DBE SET-ASIDES
Jurisdiction | Colorado |
The Colorado Procurement Rules had a section titled "Preferences in Awarding Contracts - Federal Assistance Requirements."326 However, this section was removed in 2018.327
While there are no set-asides, there are programs available to assist small businesses in construction activities. For example, the Department of Transportation has an "emerging small business program."328 This program provides assistance to eligible small businesses, including minority (MBE), women (WBE), and disadvantaged (DBE) business enterprises, that would otherwise not be able to participate successfully in the competitive process for the award of Department of Transportation construction contracts.329

For such state construction projects, especially contracts involving the construction of highways by the Department of Transportation, federal programs for disadvantaged business enterprises such as the Small Business Administration's 8(a) Business Development Program and 8(d) Subcontracting Program may apply.330
