GDOT State Supported Funding Program Celebrates Veterans with Outreach Event in Gainesville November 7th
Staff Report From Gainesville CEO
Tuesday, November 6th, 2018
Are you a veteran who owns a small business? Do you want to do business with the Georgia Department of Transportation? GDOT has opportunities across the state for service providers to participate in a variety of transportation-related routine maintenance projects.
“Georgia DOT wants to do business with small businesses,” said Georgia DOT Director of Equal Employment Opportunity Kimberly King. “That’s why we’re traveling across Georgia to reach out to small business owners and disadvantaged business enterprises (DBEs) about the routine maintenance projects planned in their districts. We will discuss the projects, how to become qualified to participate as a vendor, how to register for notifications about opportunities and a lot more.”
Join the GDOT State Supported Funding Program (SSFP) for a breakfast honoring our veterans! During this event, attendees will learn about the certification process, as well as the resources and opportunities available to Veteran-owned Small Businesses. Participants will have an opportunity to meet GDOT's EEO District Officer and the GDOT District Engineer. A light breakfast will be served.
