“We are honored and excited that FSIoffice is now certified as a WBENC-Certified WBE. We see this recognition as a positive affirmation for potential customers that are actively seeking to do business with women-owned businesses” said Kim Leazer CEO of FSIoffice.

“This certification also confirms all the hard work FSIoffice has put into delivering outstanding service on large contracts with governmental agencies and corporate entities that are required to show diversity in their procurement practices” Leazer also said.

WBENC’s national standard of certification implemented by the Greater Women’s Business Council is a meticulous process including an in-depth review of the candidate company and its business practices as well as a site inspection. The certification process is designed to confirm the business is at least 51% owned, operated and controlled by a woman or women.

By including women-owned businesses among their suppliers, corporations and government agencies are able to demonstrate their commitment to fostering diversity and the continued development of their supplier diversity programs.
