NIGP 91835: Disadvantage Business Enterprise (Dbe) and Historically Underutilized Business (Hub) Consulting Including Technical Assistance

NIGP 91835 Disadvantage Business Enterprise (DBE) and Historically Underutilized Business (HUB) Consulting Including Technical Assistance is an Item code that names advisory and capacity-building services to support disadvantaged and underutilized firms in competing for government contracts and navigating procurement compliance. State and local governments use this code to procure consulting support for DBE/HUB program administration, disparity studies, equity procurement policy development, and technical assistance to emerging businesses seeking to qualify for set-asides and preferences. The recent opportunities block shows no solicitations directly under this code; instead, the available records reflect construction, infrastructure, and administrative services procurements issued by cities, counties, state departments, and special-purpose authorities across multiple NIGP classes—none of which are coded or characterized as DBE or HUB consulting services themselves.

Because the source contains no recent state or local contract opportunities explicitly solicited under NIGP 91835, activity under this Item code is not visible in the current procurement window. Entities that do procure DBE and HUB consulting—such as state procurement offices, county equity programs, transit authorities, and municipalities managing disadvantaged-business initiatives—typically issue these solicitations on an as-needed basis rather than cyclically, and the block does not capture any such current postings. Firms pursuing work in this space should monitor procurement portals at major metropolitan areas, state departments of transportation, and public housing authorities, where DBE program management and disparity-study contracts are most commonly sourced.
