Finding HUB Vendors

A complete list of all certified Texas HUB vendors can be electronically accessed through the CMBL - Centralized Master Bidders List.

The state of Texas maintains the CMBL in which all registered vendors for the State of Texas and certified Texas HUBs are listed. You may search the CMBL by commodity class and item codes to find which Certified Texas HUBs provide certain commodities/services.

Mentor-Protégé Program

TWU’s Mentor-Protégé Program is designed under the authority of Section 2161.065 of the Texas Government Code to facilitate mentor-protégé relationships between prime contractors and Historically Underutilized Businesses (HUBs). 

The goal is to build and strengthen the capacity of HUBs to successfully compete for state contracts.

The objective of the program is to provide professional guidance and support to the protégé (HUB) to facilitate their growth and development and increase HUB contracts and subcontracts with TWU and other state agencies in Texas.

Participation in the TWU program:

  • requires the protégé be State of Texas HUB certified
  • is voluntary for both mentor and protégé
