About the Compliance and Business Engagement Division (CBED)
The District Department of Transportation lists upcoming procurement opportunities for the public. DDOT also strongly encourages the use of the DDOT-certified Compliance and Business Engagement Division (CBED) for contracting and subcontracting opportunities.
The CBED program is required by Congress as a condition for DDOT to receive federal funds. The program assists minorities, women, and other socially and economically disadvantaged individuals to enter the highway construction and design industries.
CBED Certification
The District Department of Transportation (DDOT) has implemented an online CBED Certification System in the Civil Rights Compliance System (CRCS). All prospective and existing CBED firms are required to upload documents through the electronic compliance system. Paper copies will not be accepted for certification.
To access the system, firms will be required to log in to the system by creating a password and inputting or updating their contact information, including their business email addresses. Updating this information will ensure that DDOT can communicate with your firm in a timely manner regarding certification and other program requirements. In most instances, your username will be your email address.
This new certification system will provide prospective CBED firms and out-of-state CBEDs interested in being certified in the District of Columbia with the ability to complete an online certification application for the District of Columbia Unified Certification Program (DCUCP). CDBE firms that are already certified with DDOT will now be able to manage their certification online and monitor changes to their certification profile through the system.
If you are currently CBED certified with DDOT, your firm is already in the system, and an account already exists. Please utilize the following link to look up your business to see if an account already exists: https://ddot.gob2g.com/.

CBED Certification Directory
Pursuant to 49 CFR §26.31, DDOT maintains a directory identifying all firms eligible to participate as CBEDs in its program. The directory lists each firm’s name, address, phone number, e-mail, and the type of work it has been certified to perform (NAICS Code) as a CBED.
Firms listed in the directory can be found here.
