Steps to Gain Compliance (cont.)

Why is compliance so important?

  • Administering the DBE program in accordance with the regulation is a condition of receiving Federal aid
    • If the Department/Subrecipient fails to enforce the DBE requirements it can lose part or all of the Federal aid for the contract

  • The Department/Subrecipient must have an administrative process to address non-compliance issues. If the Department/Subrecipient does not follow its administrative process to gain compliance it can lose part or all of the Federal aid for the contract.
