The WBE Certification Period is for three years, but WBEs must complete an Annual Update at the end of Year 1 and Year 2 to keep their WBE certification Active.
Failure to complete the Annual Update could result in the WBE's Certification becoming Inactive.
To complete your Annual Update, follow these 5 steps:
- Login to the Wisconsin Supplier Diversity Portal - wisdp.wi.gov
- Verify and Update Business and Contact Information
- Enter Gross Receipts (under Business Information Tab - Add Record)
- Enter Work Force (under Other Information Tab - Edit)
- Verify and Submit WBE Annual Update Application
Staff will review Annual Update Applications within 7 business days. If any additional information is needed, they will contact the Primary Contact. You will receive an email when their Annual Update Application has been approved.
(Note: A new Approval Letter and Certificate will NOT be issued for Annual Updates as the current certification documents are still valid.)
When you reach year 3, you will need to recertify your business. Visit our Recertification page on the left side to see more details on this process.
