We Are a Certified MWBE Company
AHM Builders is proud to announce our certification as a Minority-Owned Business Enterprise (MWBE) in New York City. This designation underscores our commitment to diversity and inclusion within the construction industry.
What Does This Mean for You?
MWBE certification programs exist across the United States, often with variations depending on the specific state or local government. These initiatives aim to provide valuable insights into the ownership of small businesses.
AHM Builders is officially certified as an MWBE in both New York State and New York City. This means that our company is majority-owned and operated by individuals who meet specific criteria related to ethnicity (Black, Hispanic, Asian-Pacific, Asian-Indian, or Native American) or gender (women).
The purpose of MWBE certification is to support and empower small businesses. To qualify, owners must meet certain criteria, including limitations on net worth (less than $15 million after deductions), primary residency in the business’s operating area, a direct ownership stake (not solely through a holding company leasing long-term assets), and retirement savings below $750,000. Additionally, certified businesses cannot have more than 300 employees.
The MWBE certification process is rigorous and involves a thorough review of submitted documentation. This comprehensive vetting ensures the integrity and credibility of the MWBE designation, providing stakeholders with confidence in the certified businesses.
