Minority- and Women-Owned Business Supplier Participation

Dallas Area Rapid Transit is inviting minority- and women-owned businesses to participate as suppliers or vendors under its equal opportunity outreach initiative, targeting companies ready to engage in subcontracting opportunities within the wholesale trade sector, specifically under NAICS code 423610. The opportunity is open to qualifying businesses that can provide goods or services to support DART’s operations, with a deadline for responses set for June 24, 2026, at 7:00 PM CT. This initiative is designed to foster inclusive economic participation by creating pathways for underrepresented business owners to access public sector contracts, without a formal set-aside classification but with an explicit focus on equity and outreach. All interested parties must submit their interest through the designated portal by the stated deadline and are expected to meet the standard requirements for vendor eligibility and compliance with DART’s procurement policies.
