PROARC – MWBC Minority Woman Business of the Year!

PROARC has benefitted from MWBC business counseling received over the past four years. We first contacted Bowie MWBC, when we were considering our Maryland MBE/DBE certification. Our advisor met with us and helped ensure that we were prepared for discussions with MDOT. This helped in our success in becoming certified.

We also came to the Bowie MBWC when we were working on our 8(a) application submittal. We obtained our certification at the end of 2016. This enabled PROARC to participate in 7(j) training and completed a seven-month SBA Emerging Leaders course.

PROARC President/CEO, Renee Watson, was a guest speaker for the MWBC “Understanding Your Market” event in August of 2017, we participated in the more recent “Doing Business with Northrup Grumman” event, an attended the 2018 Women’s Business Day program in Annapolis, MD.
