For 50 years, the GMSDC have been proud to certify and champion minority businesses, playing a vital role in their growth and success. As of July 9, all MBE certifications will now be handled on the national level and be managed by the National Minority Supplier Development Council (NMSDC). MBE certifications will be processed through The NMSDC Hub, a centralized platform designed to streamline the certification process. The transition period will last approximately 18 days, through July 25.
As we navigate through this transition, our commitment to working directly with minority businesses remains unchanged. As your local affiliate, we will continue to provide the connections, resources and support needed to help your business grow and thrive. Your business is — and always will be — our top priority.
During this transition, new MBE certifications can get started using the pre-qualification link;, however, current MBEs and applicants that have already started the process will not be able to access the database for certification purposes. At the end of this data-freeze period, MBEs and applicants will be sent an announcement that The NMSDC Hub is now open to continue your current application or start a recertification application when you are within 90-days of your expiration date. Please keep an eye out for an email from ZohoAdmin@nmsdc.org that will have your login details and instructions for accessing the database.
