NDOT Update to USDOT DBE/ACDBE Program Implementation Modifications
In accordance with the October 3, 2025, DBE Interim Final Rule (IFR), NDOT has established a reevaluation process to review currently certified DBE/ACDBE firms to determine if they meet the new certification standards.
The initial reevaluation process applies only to firms that were originally certified by NDOT. Once the reevaluation process is completed, NDOT will begin accepting new DBE/ACDBE applications as well as interstate certifications.
Until the reevaluation process is completed, DBE goals may not be set on any contracts receiving USDOT financial assistance and entered on or after October 3, 2025.
