The MDT Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) Program encourages and supports the participation of companies owned and controlled by socially and economically disadvantaged individuals in transportation contracts.

Members of the public will have opportunities to tour Montana businesses as part of a national celebration of manufacturing.

Aerospace manufacturer Boeing in Helena, snowboard binding maker Spark R&D of Bozeman and aluminum parts producer Spika in Lewistown are among those who will open their doors during Manufacturing Day on Friday, Oct. 5.

"If you’ve ever wondered how things are made, these tours are a great way to find out," said Paddy Fleming, director of Montana Manufacturing Extension Center at Montana State University. The events are also a chance for people to see what manufacturing jobs look like and determine whether a manufacturing career might be a good fit for them, he added.
