How to Do Business with the U.S. Department of Transportation
The DOT’s mission is to serve the United States by ensuring a fast, safe, efficient, accessible and convenient transportation system that meets our vital national interests and enhances the quality of life of the American people.
In doing so, the DOT spends over $1 billion annually on products and services provided by small businesses. Bids are surprisingly diverse. In addition to the typical construction and engineering projects, you’ll find requests for:
- Educational services
- Office equipment
- Copywriting
- Data base management
- Technical & professional services
Agencies that fall under the DOT include the Federal Aviation Administration, the Federal Highway Administration, the Federal Transit Administration and the Maritime Administration
So, whatever business you’re in, there’s a good chance that the DOT could be interested. Attend this FREE event and learn how you can get started.
