Sevan Officially Certified as Veteran Owned Business

Sevan Multi-Site Solutions, Inc. (Sevan ) is officially certified as a veteran owned business.

Sevan, a global leader in innovative program management for clients with multiple sites, is certified as a Veteran-Owned Business by National Veteran Business Development Council (NVBDC) and a Certified Veteran’s Business Enterprise™ (VBE) via the National Veteran-Owned Business Association (NaVOBA).

Sevan is honored to partner with both NVBDC and NaVOBA, and very excited about this milestone for the organization.

“Being validated as a mid-sized Veteran Owned Business was part of our three-year strategic plan,” said Jim Evans, Founder and CEO of Sevan. “Since different clients partner with either NVBDC or NaVOBA to maximize their diverse spend goals, it’s key to be certified by both. Now that we are—this will broaden and deepen our network of clients and partners.”

Partnerships with NVBDC and NaVOBA create corporate contracting opportunities for veteran and service-disabled veteran businesses via certification, advocacy, outreach, recognition and education.

“These certifications will make us even more unique and competitive to win future work— and strengthen Sevan’s footprint in the multi-site space,” Evans said. “We are also confident these stamps of approval will provide us the opportunity to recruit talented and well-equipped people transitioning out of the military and into civilian work.”

The certification process included a comprehensive list of business requirements and criteria, along with a rigorous examination and verification process.

“What a fun and exciting time to be at Sevan—for our entire team,” said David Hendrix, Chief Commercial Officer. “Now that Sevan qualifies as a diverse supplier, we look even more forward to partnering with current and new clients to contribute to our nation’s diverse spend initiatives.”

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. In 2020, Sevan ranked No. 124 on the Financial Times FT 1000 list of America’s Fastest-Growing Companies. Visit our website to learn more about Sevan.
