Release Date
Wednesday, August 30, 2023

The deadline to submit the online nomination form is Monday, September 25, 2023, at 5 p.m.

The Small and Minority Business Resources (SMBR) department has opened nominations for the 18th Annual Diversity in Contracting Awards. Prime contractors, prime consultants, and certified firms can nominate themselves or their chosen business for this distinguished award.

Firms that contribute to the City of Austin's economic health through exceptional business practices and customer service and demonstrate high community involvement through civic and community projects and activities are encouraged to apply. 

The deadline to complete and submit the online nomination form is Monday, September 25, 2023, at 5 p.m. Applications submitted after the deadline will not be accepted. Winners will be announced at the 18th Annual Diversity in Contracting awards ceremony in December. 

Applications will be reviewed by the SMBR team, and award determinations will be based on previous award history, City of Austin contract performance, and compliance with the M/WBE and/or DBE Programs. Businesses that have been awarded by SMBR in the past 5 years are ineligible. Nominees for Women and Minority categories must be certified by the City of Austin.

For the past 17 years, the Small and Minority Business Resources (SMBR) Department has celebrated the accomplishments and successes of prime contractors, prime consultants, and firms certified as Minority or Women-Owned Business Enterprises. We look forward to honoring you again this year.
