Unlocking Opportunities with WOSB Certification
At A-Team Interpreting®, LLC we are proud to announce our certification as a Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB) by the Small Business Administration (SBA). This prestigious designation underscores our commitment to diversity and excellence in providing American Sign Language interpreting services on-site and remote to government organizations at the federal, state, and local levels.
This certification is highly valuable for a business to achieve for several key reasons:
Access to Federal Contracts
The Women-Owned Small Business certification is designed to help women-owned businesses compete for federal contracts by providing access to set-asked or sole-source contracts. It’s part of the SBA’s efforts to promote diversity and support women entrepreneurs in government contracting opportunities.
Dedication to Exceptional Services
This certification was something that we worked hard to obtain for over three years and is so important because it opens doors to federal contracting opportunities set aside specifically for WOSBs, empowering us to compete on a level playing field in government procurements. This recognition not only enhances our credibility but also reinforces our dedication to delivering exceptional services while supporting the economic empowerment of women in business.
Diversity and Efficiency
By choosing A-Team Interpreting® federal agencies and prime contractors can fulfill their diversity objectives while benefiting from our proven track record of cultivating relationships with service providers, consumers, and clients, filling assignments with efficiency and speed, and being the first choice for those who are in need of a sub- contracting agency. Join us in driving innovation and success through our WOSB- certified solutions.
