According to recent statistics via Zippia, the most common ethnicity among general contractors is White, which makes up 77.5% of all general contractors. Comparatively, there are 13.8% of the Hispanic or Latino ethnicity and 3.8% of the Black or African American ethnicity. When it comes to gender among general contractors, 9.9% of them are women compared to 86.2% which are men. And The U.S. Census Bureau recently released estimates, highlighting veteran-owned businesses making up about 5.9% of all businesses. Woman-owned businesses (WBEs), minority-owned businesses (MBEs), veteran-owned businesses (VBEs), businesses owned by economically disadvantaged individuals (DBEs), and Minority, Women, and Disadvantaged Business Enterprises (MWDBEs) can face challenges connecting to and receiving contracts with primes. Subcontractors USA continues to expand, serving Houston and the surrounding areas and the State of Texas. We pride ourselves on being a resource for these businesses, opening doors to connect them to primes.
The Subcontractors USA journal highlights subcontractors and primes, providing credible industry content, but it is also an extension of our company, serving a diverse clientele that includes city and state government agencies, corporations, and universities. WBEs, MBEs, VBEs, DBEs, and MWDBEs, who are also clients, are able to engage with primes, increasing their opportunity to do business with primes. Through our events, journal, business consulting and development services, and expansion plans, we will continue to close the gap between primes and these businesses. These efforts in turn, support primes in meeting and exceeding their supplier diversity program goals.
Proudly Serving the State of Texas as a Bridge Between Primes and Subcontractors
President and CEO Keith J. Davis Sr. aka “MR. D-MARS” leads Subcontractors USA, with over 20 years of experience in business and publishing. “Many of our clients that include state and government agencies, corporations, and universities are prime contractors, who have supplier diversity programs and are looking to reach WBEs, MBEs, VBEs, DBEs, and MWDBEs and provide them with relevant information on how to do business with them. We are honored to be regarded all over Texas as a vital element in helping to reduce the gap between primes and and these businesses. It is a phenomenal thing to see how we are opening doors for these subcontractors to be invited to a seat at the table and connect with primes, something they wouldn’t otherwise have had the opportunity to do,” said MR. D-MARS.
The U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) highlights small businesses making up 99.9% of U.S. businesses and employing 47.1% of U.S. employees. And while statistics continue to come together in regards to the impact COVID-19 had on the small business economy, some indicators reveal that 38% of essential Small And Midsize Businesses (SMBs) stayed open in 2020 and 59% of entrepreneurs expect the COVID-19 impact to affect their bottom line for two years or less. Every year, countless new business enterprises open, and many are currently struggling to stay afloat, having to adapt to the unforeseen challenges brought on by COVID-19. MR. D-MARS and the team understand this, making it a great priority for the company to expand at this time, meeting and surpassing expectations of WBEs, MBEs, VBEs, DBEs, and MWDBEs, also being an asset to primes and their supplier diversity program objectives.
“The pandemic was something that none of us were prepared for, but what I have found is that WBEs, MBEs, VBEs, DBEs, and MWDBEs are resilient and persistent in their pursuit of seeking opportunities with primes for growth. Subcontractors USA has not been immune to the difficulties brought about by COVID-19, but like our prime and small business clients, we have learned to adapt. Adaptability and expansion is what we have done and will continue to do, serving with excellence for successful results,” MR. D-MARS said.
