NWS Awarded California Small Business Certification

SAN DIEGO, February 22, 2011 – National Water Services, Inc. (NWS) recently was certified as a Small Business by the California Department of General Services.  This certification provides many contractual benefits to NWS as well as the company’s prime contracting partners.

With this certification, NWS will receive a five percent bid preference on most California state, county and municipal solicitations.  Additionally, non-small business prime contractors who use NWS for at least 25% of their net bid price could also be eligible for a bid preference of five percent.

In many cases, NWS’ small business certifications can be coupled with the company’s national and state Women Business Enterprise (WBE) certifications to make NWS a formidable subcontracting partner when bidding on federal, state, county and municipal projects.

Any organizations looking for a small women-owned business to partner with on energy performance contracts or to perform water conservation services can contact Jason Mayer, NWS Chief Operating Officer, at 573-356-7355 or via email at jason@nationalwaterservices.com.
