STERLING, IL – VeriFacts, LLC, a leading employment location and verification service provider in the receivables management industry, is thrilled to announce it has once again been recertified as a Women’s Business Enterprise (WBE) and Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB). The recertification was conducted by the Women’s Business Development Center – Midwest, on behalf of the Women’s Business Enterprise National Council (WBENC).
“VeriFacts is proud to reaffirm our commitment to diversity and inclusion as we achieve recertification as a Women’s Business Enterprise and Women-Owned Small Business. This recognition reflects not only our dedication to excellence but also our belief in the power of diverse perspectives to drive innovation and success,” said Stephanie Clark, CEO of VeriFacts.
Leaders for Change
This recertification not only underscores the company’s dedication to gender equality, but also highlights its role in promoting opportunities for women entrepreneurs and leaders. Diversity isn’t just a buzzword—it’s a strategic imperative. By maintaining its WBE and WOSB status, VeriFacts ensures that its business practices continue to align with principles of fairness and equality, fostering an environment where everyone, regardless of gender, can thrive.
Moreover, VeriFacts’ recertification as a WBE and WOSB enhances its credibility and competitiveness in the marketplace. Many government and private sector contracts prioritize businesses that are certified as women-owned, providing VeriFacts with increased access to lucrative opportunities.
The Recertification Process
The WBENC certification process ensures a company is at least 51% owned, controlled, operated, and managed by a woman or women. A WOSB certification, on the other hand, allows businesses to participate in the WOSB Federal Contracting Program as authorized by the 2015 National Defense Authorization Act. With VeriFacts’ recertification as both a WBE and WOSB, they are positioned to continue serving their clients with exceptional service while expanding their reach and impact.
As a Women-Owned Business, VeriFacts offers significant benefits to its clients, including potential federal tax accommodations and eligibility for certain development initiatives targeted at women-owned businesses. The company’s recertification brings renewed opportunities for business partnerships, training workshops, technical guidance, and a continued focus on quality service.
