A: Working with a certified women-owned small business can support an organization’s broader procurement, small business participation, and federal contracting objectives. For companies that track or report on supplier participation, partnering with a firm certified under the U.S. Small Business Administration’s Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB) Federal Contract Program provides recognized documentation that can count toward those requirements.
Beyond certification, small businesses often offer practical advantages that can improve the day-to-day client experience. Teams tend to be more nimble, with faster decision-making, more direct access to senior leadership, and a higher degree of customization in how services are delivered. Rather than a one-size-fits-all model, solutions are typically tailored to the specific needs of the organization.
SBA has operated as a woman-owned business since 2018, and our WOSB certification formally affirms that status. Clients benefit from deep actuarial, consulting, and outsourcing expertise combined with a responsive, hands-on approach—and the added advantage of aligning their benefits partnership with small business and women-owned participation goals.
