Starting Aug. 1, 2024, certified Targeted Group Businesses and Veteran-owned Small Businesses may receive a preference of up to 12% of the amount of a bid when bidding as a prime contractor on MnDOT construction contracts. The preference amount is not to exceed $240,000.
All business must submit a Preference Request Form prior to the close of the letting to receive the preference on their bid.
MnDOT applies the preference when evaluating proposals to determine the low bidder. The contract value is in the full bid amount.
This preference increase helps certified small businesses owned by veterans, women, and minorities when competing for state-funded construction contracts. It also aligns with the Department of Administration small business preference cap.
