We believe in enhancing opportunities for XBEs in the construction industry and empowering our clients to strive to create a more equitable world for local, minority businesses.
Our practice of diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) work is guided by our lived experience as African American business professionals in Indiana. Our experience shows us that there is value in developing a workforce to include XBEs in public works projects, policy making within organizations and more broadly across sectors. *XBE is used to reference MBE/WBE/DBE/VBE businesses as a group. Minority Business Enterprise (MBE), Women Business Enterprise (WBE), Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE), Veteran Business Enterprise (VBE). |
It is not about compliance. It is about the commitment to embedding a culture of
diversity, equity, and inclusion within organizations and projects.
J. Beard Management has been responsible for DEI management efforts for XBE organizations that have resulted in millions of dollars of growth for those businesses. These efforts have also led to successful achievements of client goals to include diverse business enterprises in major public projects.
We serve clients seeking to expand their XBE participation on construction projects and we foster XBE-client relationships to create a more equitable world for local, minority contractors. With a large network of local XBEs, essentially, we serve as the liaison between clients and XBE contractors. We seek to support and fulfill the needs of all stakeholders. |
