State of Missouri Certification by the Office of Equal Opportunity
State of Missouri Certification as a M/WBE with the Office of Equal Opportunity provides greater opportunities for these businesses to bid on state contracts. All certified M/WBE vendors appear on the Office of Equal Opportunity Directory of Certified M/WBE Vendors. Both contractors and state agencies use this site as a resource in soliciting certified minority and/or female participation for ongoing projects. This certification covers all state agencies except for Missouri Department of Transportation (MoDOT), which participates in the Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) Program.
Other Certifying Agencies
There are other agencies that certify businesses as a M/WBE. However, certification with these other agencies does not guarantee certification by the State of Missouri.
