The Benefits of Partnering with a VOSB

If you are in the construction industry, it's important to partner with Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (VOSB) like Equipment Oahu in Waimanalo, Hawaii. Why? Here are 5 reasons:

Preferential Treatment:  VOSBs and SDVOSBs have unique advantages in federal contracting.

Veteran's First Verification Program:  This program offers preferential treatment for these businesses.

Increased Contract Opportunities:  Partnering with veteran-owned businesses increases the likelihood of being awarded government contracts

Integrity, Excellence, and Community Engagement:  Veteran-owned businesses value these principles.
