Department of Transportation, FY 2014
July 1, 2014
M/WBE Letter Grade
Letter Grade Overview
DOT did very little business with M/WBEs in its largest industry: construction. The agency’s final grade would have been boosted by strong performance across all groups in goods procurement – but with a very small percentage of its total spending in this category – the final grade is a D.
