Business Diversity ProgramDiversity Business Partner (DBP) Program
CRAA’s ability to achieve overall goals in recent years can be largely attributed to the use of contract goals established during the bidding process. Contract goals have proven to be effective at creating positive working relationships between CRAA’s prime contractors and many DBE and/or small business firms. These relationships have even extended to non-AIP assisted projects.
Through these and other initiatives to find new small businesses, and increase utilization of existing DBEs and/or small businesses, CRAA expects to increase the race/gender neutral portion of goal attainment. As a non-certifying entity, CRAA believes it’s critical to continue cultivating strong partnerships with certifying agencies and community business diversity organizations.
