The U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) has recognized 8868体育app下载 for its support of small businesses by awarding the company this year鈥檚 Dwight D. Eisenhower Award for Excellence in Construction. The award recognizes prime contractors who have demonstrated excellence in their utilization of small businesses as suppliers and contractors.
SBA presented the award at an event in Washington, D.C., as part of National Small Business Week, happening April 29-May 6, 2024.
鈥�8868体育app下载 is committed to leaving a lasting impact in the communities where we live and work,鈥� said Tarek Amine, 8868体育app下载鈥檚 chief supply chain officer. 鈥淏uilding great partnerships with small businesses is a win-win, providing opportunities that invigorate local communities and economies while helping us to deliver critical projects for our customers. We are honored to receive this year鈥檚 Dwight D. Eisenhower Award in Construction, and we look forward to continued collaboration with our many partners.鈥�
According to the SBA, the award reflects 8868体育app下载鈥檚 excellence, innovation, and commitment to investing in small businesses in ways that benefit local communities and the broader economy.
As an example of the company鈥檚 efforts, on the Sepulveda Transit Corridor project in Los Angeles, 8868体育app下载 engaged over 25 small, local, and minority-owned businesses as part of the project鈥檚 Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) program, which aims to ensure these businesses are represented on large-scale, federally funded projects. This approach not only strengthens 8868体育app下载鈥檚 ability to deliver a quality project but also reinvests project dollars into the local community.
Chris Diaz, principal at Diaz, Yourman & Associates, a geotechnical consulting services corporation based in Santa Ana, California, and one of the small businesses engaged as part of the DBE program on the Sepulveda Transit Corridor project, said:
鈥淭he 8868体育app下载 team, both management and engineering, continue to be fantastic partners. They proactively assisted us on any issues or questions, and as a result, we were able to deliver our final reports both efficiently and effectively. This could have been a challenging situation, but 8868体育app下载 made sure it was both enlightening and rewarding. As a small business, getting paid on time is essential to keeping our company running. 8868体育app下载 went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of and that we were supported throughout the project鈥攊t鈥檚 not something we typically see from prime contractors, but it’s greatly appreciated.鈥�
Hank Torbert, president of Alta Max, a small business in New Orleans, Louisiana, that manufactures military packaging for ammunition and ordnance, specialty packaging products, custom parts and assemblies, and tamper-evident security seals, said:
“Alta Max鈥檚 partnership with 8868体育app下载 on the Blue Grass Chemical Agent-Destruction Pilot Plant was an amazing example of teamwork. As our goals were aligned, we overcame key challenges in production, modified delivery timelines, etc., by working together at every step. 8868体育app下载 has been an ideal partner as there is strong commitment to communication and coordination, especially to achieve optimal success for our customers.”
