Congratulations on your decision to become certified with the Southern Florida Minority Supplier Development Council (SFMSDC)! Certification with the SFMSDC is an important step for any minority-owned business. The following section will explain the certification process and assist you in completing the SFMSDC MBE Pre-Qualification Certification Application. Please click the links below to learn more.
SFMSDC Certification Process
Step 1.
Complete the SFMSDC’s Pre-qualification Application. Pre-qualification ensures that you may meet the National Minority
Supplier Development Council’s (NMSDC) criteria for certification. It also briefly outlines the various
documents needed for certification.
Step 2.
Submit certification fee. (This fee is non-refundable)
Step 3.
Confirmation of receipt of pre-qualification will be sent including the complete Certification Application.
Note: All applications must be completed and received by the SFMSDC within sixty days of the confirmation
of your pre-qualification. An application remaining incomplete sixty days following the confirmation of
the pre-qualification will result in the stoppage of your certification process. Re-application is
permitted one year after the end of your initial certification process. The certification fee is
non-refundable at this point.
Step 4.
Upon receipt of the completed application and all attachments, a site visit will be scheduled and completed
at your corporation’s headquarters.
Step 5.
All completed applications with completed site visits will be presented to the certification committee.
The certification committee meets once a month to review all MBE certification applications. Corporate
Members of the SFMSDC make up the certification committee.
Step 6.
Upon approval, certificates of MBE certification will be issued.
