  5. Our Mission To promote equity in contracting for Certified Minority/Women Business Enterprises.

  6. Our Values Integrity, Respect, Quality Customer Service and Team Work.

  7. Our Vision To become a one-stop resource center for Minority/Women Business Enterprises (M/WBEs) which facilitates equity in contracting while ensuring diverse participation in the procurement process by providing excellent customer service.

  8. The Benefits of Certification? Certification With The State of Florida

  9. State Certification • Is Florida’s premier stamp of approval for minority and women business entrepreneurs. Across the State of Florida, the validation of Minority/Women Business Enterprises is most widely accepted in the private sector as well as cities, counties, school districts, hospital and water management districts and other quasi governmental entities is provided by state government certification. • Additionally, the state certification application is one of the most “user-friendly” applications in the State of Florida.

  10. RE-CERTIFICATION Is simplified for vendors who have registered in MyFloridaMarketPlace and completed the certification process. Annually, all that is required is a signed affidavit for re-certification in order to reduce duplicated efforts.

  11. REFERRALS Are given to minority and women-owned businesses that are certified by the state. This means they are “referred” to state agencies seeking to include supplier diversity as a part of their purchase order and contract opportunities.

  12. STRATEGIC ALLIANCES With major corporations are encouraged as a part of the Office of Supplier Diversity’s (OSD) “Matchmaking” efforts. Vendors certified as minority vendors by the state of Florida have “preference” as OSD strives to assist in developing business relationships, which hopefully will lead to contract opportunities.

  13. THE MENTOR-PROTÉGÉ PROGRAM This program is available to minority and women-owned businesses (MWBE) certified by the state of Florida to enhance the capability of MWBEs to compete more successfully for state government contracts. The program expands the OSD’s efforts to identify and respond to the developmental needs and requirements of state-certified MWBEs.

  14. THE LOAN MOBILIZATION PROGRAM This program assists state- certified minority business enterprises in obtaining funding when starting a state-funded project. The loans made through participating banks are designed to enhance relationships between the banking community and CMWBEs.

  15. ON-LINE DIRECTORY On the MyFlorida website lists only state-certified minority and women business enterprises. The directory makes certified MWBEs available by alpha and commodity listings to state and local governmental entities, as well as the general public and private-sector corporations.

  16. SPECIAL E-MAILS And other information are disseminated to vendors who appear in the state’s database as certified minority and women-owned businesses. This information could vary from contract opportunities to special events, networking activities and technical assistance training. Examples: Invitations to Bid, MatchMaker, Roundtables and Business Workshops

  17. VENDOR IN THE SPOTLIGHT Is designed to highlight certified minority and women-owned businesses by industry to a target audience of purchasing agents and decision makers. In the IT arena certified vendors make presentations at the quarterly CIO Council meeting which allows CMWBEs to introduce their companies and capabilities to several state entities at one time.

  18. SPECIAL DISCOUNTS Including gratis admission to events may be offered to state-certified minority and women-owned businesses who participate in educational, outreach and matchmaking activities put on by state government and/or the Office of Supplier Diversity. These activities could include regional workshops and seminars, the Governor’s corporate roundtable and the annual Matchmaker Conference.

  19. Certified Minority Business Spending OSD will: • Monitor overall minority spending. • Report agency compliance to the Executive Office of the Governor, Cabinet and other State Leaders. • Assist to create overall minority spending.
