Doing Business With DART

To submit a bid or proposal, a supplier must register online with DART. The agency notifies registered suppliers of opportunities based on self-selected commodity codes. Although not a guarantee, adhering to the following steps will help in submitting a competitive bid or proposal:

  • Attend pre-bid or pre-proposal conferences.
  • Review contract solicitations carefully
  • Open doors of opportunity by allowing your certified firm to be utilized toward meeting M/WBE goals.
  • Receive more prime- and sub-contractor opportunities if you are a bona fide disadvantaged, minority- or women-owned business enterprise.
  • Work with a DART-authorized certification agency.

Upcoming Procurements

Upcoming Procurement Opportunities is a list of commodity, service, professional service, and/or construction requirements DART expects to issue, as a formal solicitation, normally within 30 to 60 days from the date of posting.

 

 

D/M/WBE Programs

It is DART’s policy that disadvantaged, minority and/or women-owned business enterprises have fair and equitable opportunity to participate in DART procurements.

Certification

If you are a D/M/WBE interested in participating in DART procurements but have not yet been certified, you may contact the North Texas Regional Certification Agency for assistance in obtaining certification.

Compliance

Once prime contractors commit to meet D/M/WBE subcontracting goals, EO works with them to ensure success towards meeting their commitments. This involves periodic reviews with both the prime and D/M/WBE subcontractors.

Outreach & Education

To assist with D/M/WBE networking, DART staff attend trade fairs and community events, and provides listings of potential prime contractors, notices of bid/proposal conferences (frequented by prime contractors) to D/M/WBEs; and listing of certified D/M/WBEs interested in subcontracting to potential prime contractors.

Conflicts Disclosure Information

Chapter 176 of the Texas Local Government Code may require the public disclosure of certain information concerning persons doing business or seeking to do business with DART, including affiliations and business and financial relationships such persons may have with local government officers.
