Abstract: The U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) is implementing a Mentor-Protégé Pilot Program that encourages agreements between large and small business prime contractors and eligible small business protégés. Small business concerns include small disadvantaged businesses, 8(a) firms, women owned businesses, HUBZone small businesses, veteran-owned-businesses and service disabled veteran-owned small businesses. The program is also designed to improve the performance of DOT contractors and subcontractors, foster the establishment of long-term business relationships between small businesses and prime contractors, and increase the overall number of small businesses that receive DOT contract and subcontract awards.
