HUB-Targeted Subcontracting and Outreach

The Texas Department of Information Resources is offering subcontracting opportunities under the HUB-Targeted Subcontracting and Outreach initiative, specifically targeting Historically Underutilized Businesses in the IT services sector categorized under NAICS code 541511. This contract is designed to promote inclusion and economic participation by creating pathways for HUBs to engage in state-funded IT projects, with a strong emphasis on compliance reporting to ensure meaningful subcontracting activities are tracked and verified. The opportunity is open through June 23, 2031, providing a five-year window for eligible businesses to apply and participate. Participation requires adherence to reporting obligations that document subcontracting efforts, ensuring transparency and accountability in how work is distributed to HUBs.
