Mission
To provide assistance through education and counseling to applicants throughout the certification process in order to build a certified vendor pool for member entities.
Commitment
It is the policy of all the public entities which are part of the North Central Texas Regional Certification Agency (NCTRCA) that Disadvantaged Business Enterprises (DBEs), Minority Business Enterprises (MBEs) and Woman-owned Business Enterprises (WBEs) have the maximum practical opportunity to participate in their contracting and purchasing activities.
Certification is a critical component of their programs to assist disadvantaged, minority and woman-owned business enterprises in the public entities' procurement activities. The North Central Texas Regional Certification Agency is solely committed to ensuring that bona-fide disadvantaged, minority and woman-owned firms, benefit from the programs offered by the member entities.
Please see Current RFP under Contracts
As a part of the paperless directive initiated by the NCTRCA Board of Directors, effective November 21, 2017, the NCTRCA will no longer issue paper/hard copy approval letters or certificates. Great news!!! Vendors are now able to print approval letters and certificates from the NCTRCA Certification Management System. Vendors please login at https://nctrca.mwdbe.com to print your certification approval letters and certificates.
There are tutorials available on this website that vendors may register for to get help and training with completing this process.
