CDW-G Chooses New Small Business Partners IT contractor CDW Government Inc. announced it has added six new companies to its Small Business Partner Consortium and exercised the one-year contract options of nine current members of the consortium. The 15 Federal consortium members may issue purchase orders to CDW-G to fulfill the requirements of federal contracts. The consortium, launched in 2003, was created to help small businesses compete more effectively for federal IT contracts by relying on CDW-G’s e-commerce, service and distribution capabilities. “The Small Business Partner Consortium empowers our small business partners with access to leading technology products from more than 1,000 manufacturers, expanding their contracting opportunities in the Federal marketplace,” said Jim Shanks, president of CDW-G. “Similarly, CDW-G benefits from working with a select group of small companies to deliver technology solutions to federal agencies that not only benefit from the businesses’ specialized services but also move closer to attaining their federal small business contracting goals.” The consortium includes four HUBZone companies; one Native Alaskan-owned company; one Native American-owned company; 10 small disadvantaged businesses; three service-disabled veteran-owned companies; and three woman-owned companies. The new members of the consortium are: DemiCom, Inc., Westlake Village, CA;
The renewing members are: Betis Group Inc., Arlington, VA;
