Women-Owned Small Business

Certified WOSB. Which is worth something on your scorecard.

Most staffing vendors are interchangeable on paper. We are a certified Women-Owned Small Business already entrusted to work with the United States government, so contracting with us does something for your numbers as well as your headcount.

What the certification actually does

Diversity spend is easy to commit to and hard to fill. Most buyers do not fail on intent. They fail on finding certified vendors who can actually deliver the work.

The federal government sets an annual contracting goal for Women-Owned Small Businesses, and prime contractors on large awards carry subcontracting plans they are measured against. Corporate supplier diversity programs work the same way, with targets that get reported upward whether or not they were met.

The constraint is rarely willingness. It is finding a certified supplier who can take on real volume and perform. Xpand is a full staffing operation that happens to be certified, not a certification that subcontracts the actual work to someone else.

What it unlocks

Four things contracting with us makes possible.

Whether you are a contracting officer, a prime, or a corporate procurement team with targets to hit.

SET-ASIDES

Contracts reserved for WOSB

Certain federal opportunities are set aside for Women-Owned Small Businesses. Our certification makes us eligible to compete for and perform them.

SUBCONTRACTING

Credit on your plan

If you are a prime carrying a subcontracting plan, staffing awarded to us counts toward the WOSB and small business commitments you report against.

SUPPLIER DIVERSITY

Reportable corporate spend

For private sector procurement teams with diversity targets, staffing is one of the easiest categories to redirect toward a certified supplier without changing how the work gets done.

CAPACITY

A vendor who can actually deliver

Certification only helps if the supplier performs. We have staffed call centers, manufacturing, logistics, ports and government contracts since 2010.

Where we deliver

Certified across every sector we staff.

The certification applies to all of it. So does the screening, the insurance and the payroll compliance.

Getting us on the list

Onboarding a certified vendor.

If you have targets to report against, the fastest path is usually a small first engagement rather than a full vendor review.
