28 Novembro 2023 - 5:15PM
HII (NYSE: HII) was recently recognized with the Veteran Small
Business Advocate of the Year Award from the National Veteran Small
Business Coalition (NVSBC). The award specifically focused on the
work accomplished by HII’s Newport News Shipbuilding division.
NVSBC is a nationally recognized non-profit organization that
provides training, networking, and advocacy for veteran small
business entrepreneurs in the federal market to ensure they are
procurement ready and have enhanced access to opportunities to
start, operate, sustain, and grow competitive and strong businesses
serving federal agencies and other government contractors.
HII won in the “Prime Contractor Representative or Team”
category for exceeding expectations in advocating for veteran-owned
small businesses and service-disabled, veteran-owned small
businesses. NNS continually demonstrates its commitment to these
businesses by participating in, supporting and sponsoring numerous
veteran-related outreach activities.
“Our suppliers, from coast to coast, are at the heart and core
of what we do here: building the world’s most capable
nuclear-powered aircraft carriers and submarines for the U.S.
Navy,” said Cullen Glass, NNS vice president of supply chain
management. “We are grateful for this recognition as we continue
our commitment to ensuring our diverse supplier base reflects
opportunities for all.”

“NVSBC and the veteran small business community greatly
appreciates HII’s partnership and demonstrated leadership in
advocating for and bringing strong business opportunities to the
veteran small business community,” NVSBC Executive Director Scott
Jensen said. “This is a well-deserved recognition of their
commitment.”
This recognition follows HII’s recent honor of the 2023 Honoring
Investments in Recruiting and Employing (HIRE) Vets Medallion
Award. The HIRE Vets Medallion Award from the U.S. Department of
Labor is the only federal-level veterans’ employment award that
recognizes a company or organization’s exemplary commitment to
veteran hiring, retention and professional development.
