Celebrating Asphalt Ninjas' WBE Certification: A New Era of Excellence and Diversity
We are thrilled to announce that Asphalt Ninjas has been officially certified as a Women Business Enterprise (WBE) in the state of Missouri! This significant milestone not only marks a new chapter for our company but also underscores our commitment to diversity and excellence in the construction industry.
The Journey to WBE Certification
Achieving WBE certification is a testament to the hard work, dedication, and commitment to excellence by our founder, Christina Dinkela, and the entire Asphalt Ninjas team. This certification places us among a select group of companies recognized for their commitment to diversity and quality. It reflects our mission to deliver high-quality construction services while upholding the values of diversity and inclusion.
Financial Benefits for Companies Hiring WBE Contractors
Tax Incentives
One of the significant financial benefits for companies hiring WBE contractors is the availability of tax incentives. The federal government, along with many state and local governments, provides tax breaks and incentives to companies that do business with women-owned enterprises. These incentives can reduce overall tax liabilities, particularly for projects funded with federal or state grants or loans.
Access to Government Contracts
Companies that partner with WBE-certified businesses often gain access to government contracts that prioritize or require diversity in their supply chain. This can open up new revenue opportunities and provide a competitive advantage in bidding for public sector projects. Many government agencies have set-aside programs specifically for women-owned businesses, making it easier to secure contracts.
Supplier Diversity Goals
Large corporations often have supplier diversity programs that include spending goals for women-owned businesses. Partnering with a WBE-certified company like Asphalt Ninjas can help these corporations meet their diversity objectives, potentially leading to more business opportunities and stronger relationships with major clients.
Enhanced Marketability
Working with WBE-certified contractors can enhance a company’s marketability and brand image. Consumers and stakeholders increasingly value diversity and inclusion, and demonstrating a commitment to these principles can attract positive attention and customer loyalty. It also positions the company as a socially responsible entity, which can be a key differentiator in the marketplace.
A Commitment to Quality and Excellence
We are grateful for the support and trust of our clients, employees, and industry partners who have been integral to our journey towards achieving this important certification. As we move forward, Asphalt Ninjas remains committed to setting the standard for quality asphalt maintenance and construction services, upheld by the diverse and talented team that makes us who we are.
