Transit Program

DBE Program Updates USDOT issues Interim Final Rule and guidance requiring immediate changes to DBE program regulations

On Oct. 3, 2025, the United States Department of Transportation (USDOT) published an Interim Final Rule (IFR) in the Federal Register modifying the eligibility requirements for participation in the Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) program. Furthermore, the IFR mandates that all currently certified DBEs be reevaluated, and ultimately recertified, for continued program eligibility under these new requirements. 49 C.F.R. § 26.111.

The Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) and Airport Concessions Disadvantage Business Enterprise (ACDBE) modifications can be found in the Federal Register Update.

DBE Program Updates USDOT issues Interim Final Rule and guidance requiring immediate changes to DBE program regulations The IFR and the IFR Frequently Asked Questions (IFR FAQ) issued on October 24, 2025, require GoRaleigh to operate the DBE Program in a constitutionally compliant, nondiscriminatory manner. It eliminates all race- and sex-based presumptions of disadvantage and replaces them with a strictly individualized determination standard. The North Carolina Unified Certification Program (NCUCP) must reevaluate all DBE firms under the new criteria before their eligibility can be confirmed. Until the reevaluation is complete, DBE goals cannot be set on contracts, and no DBE participation may be counted toward any DBE goal.

Effective immediately, GoRaleigh, Primes and Subrecipients must operate under these new federal requirements.
