“I have been a woman in business for 30 years, it was past time to be certified and I look forward to working with other diversity program businesses. I will be attending a virtual prime contracting conference later this month and look very forward to leveraging our new certification.” Kim Gilmore stated.
The WBENC standard of certification implemented by the Women’s Business Development Center – Midwest Certification Committee, is a meticulous process including an in-depth review of the business and site inspection. The certification process is designed to confirm the business is at least 51% owned, operated, and controlled by a woman or women.
By including women-owned businesses among their suppliers, corporations and government agencies demonstrate their commitment to fostering diversity and the continued development of their supplier diversity programs.
