MARTA's Board of Directors strongly supports the participation of Disadvantaged Business Enterprises. Our program is based on 49CFR26. The Office of Diversity and Equal Opportunity is responsible for assuring that all vendors are treated equitably in accordance with Federal laws and regulations governing the participation of Disadvantaged Business Enterprises. In addition we assist Disadvantaged Businesses (small, minority and women owned companies) in obtaining opportunities with MARTA's procurement of goods and services.
