ABOUT SBA The U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) was created in 1953 as an independent agency of the federal government to aid, counsel, assist and protect the interests of small business concerns, to preserve free competitive enterprise and to maintain and strengthen the overall economy of our nation. We recognize that small business is critical to our economic recovery and strength, to building America's future, and to helping the United States compete in today's global marketplace. Although SBA has grown and evolved in the years since it was established in 1953, the bottom line mission remains the same. The SBA helps Americans start, build and grow businesses. Through an extensive network of field offices and partnerships with public and private organizations, SBA delivers its services to people throughout the United States, Puerto Rico, the U. S. Virgin Islands and Guam.

Just recently, Solutions Resource accepted payment from the government institution through government credit cards for easier, reliable and fast transaction. The Federal Government is the world’s largest buyer of goods and services. It especially encourages small businesses, such as Solutions Resource, to bid on contracts for some of its purchase needs. Federal agencies are required to establish contracting goals, with at least 23% of all government buying targeted to small firms.

Solutions Resource—an Arkansas CMBE for 2 years Solutions Resource is a Certified Minority Business Enterprise (CMBE) in Arkansas for two years since October 2008. MBE is an American term which is defined as a business which is at least 51% owned, operated and controlled on a daily basis by one or more (in combination) American citizens of the ethnic minority classifications. The purpose of the MBE designation is to partner with larger firms to gain access to the resources that most MBE's do not have access to. For Solutions Resource, this certification is an important stamp of approval. It shows that the business is a viable entity capable of meeting its commitments. The CMBE is crucial for companies like SR looking to meet minority participation goals, as they can be assured that a certified minority-owned business will meet both their business needs and legal requirements.
