The National Veterans Business Development Council (NVBDC) welcomes Communications Test Design, Inc. (CTDI) as its newest Corporate Member,
Founded in 1975, CTDI is a full-service, global engineering, repair and logistics company providing cost-effective solutions to the communications industry. The company is headquartered in West Chester, PA, and supports an expanding customer base with more than 17,500 employees in 100 facilities worldwide. Among the company’s many customers are major telecom carriers, cable service providers, and OEMs.
“CTDI commits time, energy, and resources working directly with minority, women, and service-disabled veteran businesses within the US and Canada. We recognize the importance of the inclusion of diverse businesses within our Supply Chain as these businesses are growth engines for the communities in which they are based and drive increased employment.”, Eric Miller, VP, CTDI Products Division, ex-Navy with a service connected disability, said in a statement.
This commitment underscores CTDI’s support to NVBDC Certified Service-Disabled Veterans and Veteran Owned Businesses (SD/VOBs), including ongoing efforts to enhance outreach to secure SD/VOBs in their procurement pipeline.
For Veteran Owned Businesses, participation in CTDI’s Supplier Diversity Program requires being certified as a Service Disabled / Veteran Owned Business. If your SD/VOB is interested in opportunities to participate in an $80 Billion Veteran focused Diversity Spending market, contact us today to begin your certification.
NVBDC’s stringent certification standards are embraced by the 28 Corporations that comprise the Billion Dollar Roundtable whose members have committed to an annual spend of at least $1 billion with diverse businesses. The NVBDC is the only veteran certification organization that meets the Billion Dollar Roundtable (BDR) audit standards.
CTDI prefers a direct approach to adding Service Disabled / Veteran Owned Businesses to its supply chain and has partnered with the NVBDC to on-board qualified diverse suppliers who can provide quality materials and services.
If you qualify as an NVBDC Certified SD/VOB diverse supplier, additional support is available to identify opportunities with CTDI’s Supplier Diversity Program.
CTDI does not use a portal for suppliers, NVBDC Certified Service Disabled / Veteran Owned Businesses should email their NVBDC Certificate and capabilities statement to [email protected]
Service Disabled / Veteran Owned Businesses that have not yet begun their NVBDC Certification process, are urged to take this opportunity seriously.
“We are expanding NVBDC opportunities for our Certified Service-Disabled / Veteran Owned Businesses. NVBDC is always available to answer your questions on how to get certified.” Said Brigadier General (ret) Dick Miller, President, NVBDC.
