DOWNERS GROVE, Ill. (Thursday, November 10, 2022)—Sevan Multi-Site Solutions, Inc. (Sevan) is awarded the 2022 Platinum HIRE Vets Medallion from the U.S. Department of Labor.
Sevan, a global leader in innovative program management for clients with multiple sites, is a recipient of this honor for the third consecutive year—breaking new ground with the platinum designation this year.
The 2022 Platinum HIRE Vets Medallion Award is a federal level award recognizing a company’s dedication to hiring and the professional development of veterans. Sevan received the Platinum HIRE Vets Medallion Award by meeting the criteria of a percentage of new hires and employees who are veterans as well as veteran integration assistance programs.
“As a veteran, it’s wonderful to see a great deal of companies support and employ our nation’s veterans,” said Jim Evans, Founder & CEO of Sevan. “We take tremendous pride in celebrating patriotism by recruiting and retaining veterans in our workplace, and being a diverse supplier for our clients. Congratulations to all the companies who received this honor!”
Sevan joins 834 other companies from 49 states and the District of Columbia who have shown a commitment to not only hiring veterans, but also ensuring that they have a long-term career and growth plan that uses the diverse skills they acquired through their military career. Sevan prioritizes hiring process-oriented veterans with a variety of skillsets, which allows for a seamless transition from military service to delivering fast, data-driven solutions for our clients.
Earlier this year, Sevan became a certified Veteran Owned Business via the National Veteran Business Development Council (NVBDC) and earned the exclusive designation as a Certified Veteran’s Business Enterprise™ (VBE) from the National Veteran-Owned Business Association (NaVOBA). These moves solidified Sevan’s position to recruit and retain veterans at every level of the organization.
“The value that veterans bring to the workplace is an important contribution to our organization’s success,” said Aaron Reisinger, Senior Vice President of Operations and an Army veteran. “Our veteran workforce combine their previous experiences and skills with an unquenchable work ethic to become very valuable assets to our team at Sevan.”
In 2022, Sevan was recognized as an Employee-Rated Great Place to Work® for the 9th consecutive year. Also in 2022, Sevan ranked No. 36 on Engineering News-Record (ENR)’s Top 50 Program Management Firms and No. 57 on ENR’s Top 100 Construction Management-for-Fee Firms. In 2021, Sevan ranked on the Inc. 5000 list of the nation’s fastest-growing private companies for the 4th consecutive year and earned the Gold HIRE Vets Medallion Award.
