DOWNERS GROVE, Ill. (Thursday, June 23, 2022)\u2014Sevan Multi-Site Solutions, Inc. (Sevan<\/a>) has earned the exclusive designation as a Certified Veteran\u2019s Business Enterprise\u2122 (VBE) from the National Veteran-Owned Business Association (NaVOBA).<\/p>\n

Sevan, a global leader in innovative program management for clients with multiple sites, partnered with NaVOBA to receive the certification\u2014which creates corporate contracting opportunities for veteran and service-disabled veteran businesses through certification, advocacy, outreach, recognition and education.<\/p>\n

\u201cSevan is honored to be a Certified Veteran\u2019s Business Enterprise\u2122 via the National Veteran-Owned Business Association,\u201d said Jim Evans, Founder and CEO of Sevan. \u201cAs a West Point graduate and former special forces officer, it\u2019s a privilege to receive this designation. We greatly look forward to additional partnerships with other veteran owned organizations and clients across the restaurant, retail and government spaces.\u201d<\/p>\n

To be eligible for certification, organizations must be at least 51% owned, operated and controlled by one or more U.S. military veterans.<\/p>\n

\u201cSevan becoming a Certified Veteran\u2019s Business Enterprise\u2122 is an incredibly exciting milestone for our team and organization,\u201d said David Hendrix, Chief Commercial Officer. \u201cMany of our clients are looking to maximize their diverse spend goals. Sevan now qualifies as a diverse supplier. We look forward to partnering with our current and new clients with this stamp of approval to contribute to our nation\u2019s overall diverse spend initiatives.\u201d<\/p>\n

The certification process included a comprehensive list of business requirements and criteria, along with a rigorous examination and verification process. Certification enables Sevan to be more unique and competitive in the multi-site space.<\/p>\n

\u201cCorporations will not risk the accuracy of their Supplier Diversity spending goals by recording spend on contracts with firms that say they are owned by veterans if they aren\u2019t absolutely certain of the ownership, operation and control of that firm,\u201d said NaVOBA President Matthew Pavelek. \u201cWorking with a third-party nonprofit organization like NaVOBA and its VBE certification program provides that certainty.\u201d<\/p>\n

In 2022, Sevan was recognized as an Employee-Rated Great Place to Work\u00ae for the 9th consecutive year. In 2021, Sevan ranked on the Inc. 5000 list of the nation\u2019s fastest-growing private companies for the 4th\u00a0consecutive year. Also in 2021, Sevan ranked No. 21 on Engineering News-Record (ENR)\u2019s Top 50 Program Management Firms, No. 44 on ENR\u2019s Top 100 Construction Management-for-Fee Firms and earned the Gold HIRE Vets Medallion Award.
