Information for Vendors

Tennessee's contract compliance and certification processes are now streamlined and more efficient. The entire process is online, using our web-based Go-DBE System. You will manage your own information online, ensuring maximum accuracy and access to contract and certification data.

We are pleased to offer our Tennessee Go-DBE System to facilitate greater participation by minority owned, woman owned, small, and service disabled veteran businesses in the state's procurement and contracting opportunities.

The System supports the Office of Diversity Business Enterprise to:

• Compile and maintain a comprehensive list of minority owned, woman owned, small, and service disabled veteran businesses.
• Assist minority owned, woman owned, small, and service disabled veteran businesses in complying with state procurement and contracting procedures and requirements.
• Examine requests from state agencies for the purchase of materials, supplies, equipment or services to help determine which invitations to bid and requests for proposals may offer increased opportunities for minority owned, woman owned, small, and service disabled veteran businesses; and
• Make recommendations to appropriate state agencies.
