Eligible Area(s) of Work/NAICS Codes

Firms are certified for specific types of work that the socially and economically disadvantaged owner controls. A firm's eligible area(s) of work are matched to the most relevant NAICS codes. While these codes may list multiple types of work, the DBE firm is only approved for participation in the area(s) of work listed upon certification
