Tegam has been certified as a qualified Hubzone small business concern by the US Small Business Administration (SBA)
The SBA's Hubzone empowerment contracting programme seeks to create jobs and stimulate economic development in urban and rural communities that have been designated as 'historically underutilised business zones'.
Certification is awarded to small businesses that, among other qualifications, maintain a principal office in a Hubzone and employ staff that live in one of these specially designated areas.
Tegam's certification means that it is now eligible to receive Hubzone contracting opportunities under the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) Code 334515, Instrument manufacturing for measuring and testing electricity and electrical signals.
Tegam can also receive contracts that it is qualified to perform under other NAICS codes.
Contractors are encouraged to contact Tegam to discuss these opportunities.
TEGAM, headquartered in Geneva, OH, says it has been quickly responding to customers' evolving needs by providing targeted metrology, calibration, and production test instrumentation since 1979.
