The DBE Program is a federally regulated program which is required on all federally assisted contracts. The Niagara Frontier Transportation Authority (NFTA) is a recipient of federally assisted funds and, therefore, administers the DBE Program and must adhere to Title 49-Transportation, Code of Federal Regulations.
DBEs are for-profit small business concerns where socially and economically disadvantaged individuals own at least a 51% interest and also control management and daily business operations.
