Woman-Owned Business

ACM is a Woman-Owned, Woman-lead business.  We were certified by Women’s Business Enterprise (WBE) through the Women’s Business Enterprise National Council (WBENC), the nation’s largest third-party certifier of the businesses owned and operated by women in the U.S. WBENC is nationally recognized by thousands of major U.S. corporations and federal, state and local government entities.

There are many advantages to working with a WBENC company.

  • Working with a WBENC-certified WBE can provide your company with many tax benefits. The federal government affords tax incentives to those who conduct business with minority and women-owned businesses. Additionally, tax liabilities are reduced for projects funded with federal or state grants or loans when the supplier is a women-owned business. In some states, tax incentives may be available.

  • Opens New Sources of Revenue Opportunities. Research conducted by the Hackett Group shows that working with a WBENC-certified business can increase profitability with as much as 130% return on investment, providing distinct competitive advantages. Additionally, the research concluded that procurement organizations who work with a diverse supplier base also had lower overall operating costs and spent 20% less on their buying operations.

  • Diversifies Your Suppliers to Provide Multiple Procurement Channels for Goods and Services. When partnering with a WBENC-certified business, you gain access to multiple channels for goods and services which allows you to analyze various factors and choose what options are the best fit for your company’s needs. Increasing your partnerships with WBENC-certified businesses gives you the added benefit of building relationships with suppliers’ alliances.

  • Promotes Innovation and Creativity. WBENC-certified WBE’s are among the fastest-growing sector of our economy. By working with a women-owned business you show your company’s commitment to working in diverse markets and furthering economic growth in local communities. As a supporter of supplier diversity, your business becomes more attractive to corporations that are seeking second-tier sourcing suppliers that work with women-owned businesses
