Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) Recertification Tracking Resource Available and Updated Monthly

April 1, 2026

Along with our prior alerts on recent developments in the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) program, we have launched a Centralized DBE recertification tracker resource on the Clark Hill Government Contracts Website.

This tracking spreadsheet gives state specific updates on DBE recertification requirements and deadlines. Contractors and program participants can quickly see how implementation is evolving across jurisdictions. Due to frequent changes, the tracker will be updated monthly with new developments from state agencies.

Some states’ agencies are still reviewing the recent DOT DBE final rule changes and have not begun recertification processing. On the other hand, certain jurisdictions have set or passed recertification deadlines. For this reason, businesses should promptly review requirements and, if necessary, request extensions or start recertification to avoid certification lapses.

This chart is intended to complement our prior alerts by offering a practical reference for multi-jurisdiction awareness. We encourage businesses to review the tracker regularly and consult prior alerts for additional background on the underlying regulatory changes.

If you have questions about specific jurisdictions or need further assistance, contact one of these Clark Hill Government Contracts and Regulations Team attorneys managing the tracker:

Critical Risk Mitigation Provisions for Design Contracts — Part 1: Waiver of Consequential Damages

An essential element of architect and engineer contracts with their clients is the treatment of risk sharing between the parties. Design professionals who are typically simply providing services for a fee, and who are not investors who will share in the profits of a successful project, can ill-afford to expose themselves to unlimited liability for negligent errors and omissions in the performance of their services. Architects and engineers would argue that it is fundamentally unfair to expose them to unlimited downside risk when they do not directly participate in the upside profit potential of the projects they design. Owners and developers would counter that this is why design professionals carry professional liability insurance. But even simple design errors can lead to liability that is many times greater than the amount of such insurance.
