Certifications are available for:
Small business certification programs were created to help Women-Owned, Minority-Owned, Veteran-Owned, and other societally disadvantaged businesses, level the government and corporate contract playing fields.
These federal and national programs are endorsed by the SBA (Small Business Administration) and Fortune 1000 corporations. They provide a direct link between Corporate America Buyers, Government Procurement Officers, and Small Businesses interested in providing them products or services.
Many Fortune 1000 corporations, the federal government, and state agencies are mandated to do business with these select categories and set aside contracts for them. VBC help its clients obtain all the national and federal certifications they qualify for. We do this by helping our clients complete the certification application packages they need to compete for those corporate and government set- aside contracts.
