African American Woman Develops Unique Program to Help Level the Playing Field for 750,000 Minority Construction Firms
BE Group is ready to prepare minority construction firms in any city become bid ready
A decade ago, Suzanne Stantley realized that billions of dollars in construction projects were going on in communities throughout the country and that most African American businesses were not in the loop to bargain for, identify and connect with the right decision-makers. She learned these businesses’ inability to make connections impacted their ability to participate in the American dream, and she knew exactly what she had to do. She took her more than thirty-five years as a trained marketer and parlayed that into a venture that would bring companies, small and large, together to do business.
