Disadvantaged and Women-Owned
Business Enterprise (D/WBE) Program

A ruling by the 9th Circuit Court placed an injunction on the Municipality’s DBE program in 2006, pending the completion of a disparity study.

The Alaska Disparity Study completion date has been extended to May 31, 2008.  Please check this website for updates.  Contact Angie Podolak, DBE Officer, at 343-4897 if you have questions.

BECOMING A CERTIFIED DBE

DBE Program Overview

The US Department of Transportation mandated Alaskan agencies receiving Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), and Federal Transit Administration (FTA) create a centralized process for certifying Disadvantaged Business Enterprises (DBE).  As a result, the Municipality of Anchorage, Alaska Department of Transportation and Public Facilities (ADOT&PF) Civil Rights Office and numerous other agencies formed the Alaska Unified Certification Program (AUCP).

ADOT&PF Civil Rights Office administers the DBE certification process for all AUCP member agencies.  They operate a “one-stop shop” for DBE certification.  The Municipality of Anchorage and all other AUCP members recognize this certification.  To learn more about becoming a certified DBE visit www.dot.state.ak.us/cvlrts/aucp.  You can also get more information by calling 343-4897.
