Support for Your Supplier Diversity Initiatives: Herrmann International is Nationally Certified as a Women’s Business Enterprise

Written by Marla Lepore | Nov 20, 2009 1:08:03 PM

We’re pleased to announce that Herrmann International has received national certification as a Women’s Business Enterprise by the Greater Women’s Business Council, a regional certifying partner of the Women’s Business Enterprise National Council (WBENC).

The organizations we work with have a strong commitment to fostering diversity at all levels – including within their supplier ranks and throughout the supply chain. This certification gives them the assurance that Herrmann has met the strict requirements of WBENC’s certification standards.

As part of the meticulous process the WBENC institutes, we provided a detailed notarized affidavit, client interviews and site visits. The process was designed to confirm that our business is at least 51% owned, operated and controlled by a woman or women.

By including women-owned businesses among their suppliers and partners, corporations and government agencies demonstrate their commitment to fostering diversity and the continued development of their supplier diversity programs.
