Case Study: Chicago Transit Authority expands DBE/SBE impact with B2Gnow

Chicago Transit Authority demonstrates millions spent annually with B2Gnow

The Chicago Transit Authority (CTA), the nation's second-largest transportation authority, needed to support and expand its robust DBE/SBE programs. Their challenge involved efficiently setting and monitoring contract goals, certifying vendors, and providing accurate reporting to stakeholders. To address this, CTA partnered with vendor B2Gnow and implemented its Business Diversity Software.

B2Gnow provided a data collection tool that allowed CTA to manage numerous contracting opportunities far more efficiently than previous paper or Excel processes. The solution from B2Gnow helped grow CTA’s pool of vendors and enabled them to demonstrate the tangible effects of its diversity programs, showing millions of dollars spent annually within the local DBE/SBE community. This reinforced the importance of these initiatives to the community, elected officials, and board members.
