benefits of certification
We are the nation’s original third party authority for certification of veteran owned businesses of all sizes and the corporations wanting to engage them.
BEST IN CLASS SD/VOB CERTIFICATION PROGRAM
Corporations requested a reliable non-governmental 3rd party source for certified Serviced Disabled and Veteran Owned Businesses (SDVOB/VOB) and the NVBDC is it. The NVBDC supports SDVOB/VOBs to engage with industry and governmental organizations. The NBVDC is the certification body for SDVOB/VOBs to ensure that credible documentation exists of a business’ Veteran status, ownership and control.
The Government controlled Center for Veteran Enterprise (CVE) does not verify MEDIUM or LARGE companies, thereby denying them a formal Veteran Business recognition. This prevents some of the most successful businesses, including Minority and Women Owned businesses that are also Veteran owned, from being certified as Veteran owned. The NVBDC certifies all sizes of SDVOB/VOBs.
The NVBDC provides these services to our Veteran Owned businesses and works with Industry to support their strategic initiatives by following the Billion Dollar Roundtable Supplier Diversity Best Practices manual.
