Minority & Woman-Owned Business MWBE Certified

What does it mean to be certified as a Minority & Women-Owned Business Enterprise?

A Minority & Women-Owned Business Enterprise (MWBE) certification confirms that a business is at least 51% owned, operated, and controlled by minority group members and/or women.

To be eligible for certification, a business must meet certain criteria, including being at least 51% owned by individuals who belong to one of those groups.

Why is being certified as an MWBE important?

The certification helps create fair access to public contracting. Government agencies and prime contractors often set participation goals requiring a portion of contract dollars to go to certified MWBE firms — certification lets a business count toward those goals and gain visibility in procurement databases agencies and contractors use to source MWBE vendors.
