Capital Strategic Solutions (CSS) is proud to announce that we have recently received Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) certification in the states of Connecticut, Maine, and Vermont. These new certifications complement our existing DBE status in Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and Rhode Island, making us now certified in all six New England states, Florida and New Mexico. This milestone not only expands our opportunities to deliver critical services to municipalities and communities throughout the region but also reflects our commitment to inclusivity and diversity in business.
The DBE program, established by the U.S. Department of Transportation, is designed to level the playing field for small businesses owned by women and minorities. It provides certified firms like CSS with increased access to federally funded transportation projects and other public-sector opportunities. This is a pivotal moment for us as it furthers our mission to support public initiatives that foster community growth, resilience, and equitable development.
Why Contracting with a DBE Matters
Partnering with a DBE-certified firm offers several key advantages for both public and private entities:
- Enhanced Access to Federal Projects: DBE certification allows businesses to participate in federally funded transportation and infrastructure projects. This gives clients the confidence that they are working with a firm that meets rigorous standards and is positioned to execute projects at the federal and state levels.
- Commitment to Diversity and Inclusion: Partnering with a DBE demonstrates an organization’s commitment to supporting diversity and promoting equal opportunities. It also aligns with many public-sector goals aimed at increasing minority representation in business.
- Expertise in Local and Federal Regulations: DBE-certified firms like CSS are well-versed in navigating complex regulatory landscapes, ensuring compliance with both local and federal requirements. This expertise helps mitigate risks and ensures that projects stay on track and within budget.
- Support for Community Development: Choosing to work with a DBE-certified business supports the growth of small, minority- and women-owned enterprises, which play a vital role in strengthening the local economy and promoting social equity.
Expanding Our Impact Across New England and Beyond

This certification not only acknowledges our commitment to diversity and inclusion but also empowers us to expand our impact in communities that need it most. At Capital Strategic Solutions, we are passionate about driving positive change, and this milestone allows us to collaborate on vital projects that align with our mission to build stronger, more resilient communities.”
