PRESS RELEASE
DynCorp International Recognized for Commitment to Veteran-Owned Businesses
FALLS CHURCH, Va. — May 15, 2007
DynCorp
International Inc. (NYSE: DCP) has been recognized by Veteran’s
Business Journal (VBJ) magazine as one of the United States’ 10 best
corporations for veteran-owned businesses.
The listing
recognizes both efforts and results by companies in patronizing
veteran-owned suppliers and contractors. DynCorp International is
featured in the magazine’s May/June cover story, “They Get It: The 2007
Best Corporations for Veteran-Owned Businesses All Understand the Sound
Business Case in Using Veteran-Owned Business Suppliers.”
In
praising DynCorp International’s efforts, VBJ singled out DI employee
Debbie Newberry, who manages DI’s small-business diversity programs.
Ms. Newberry helps counsel, mentor, support, and train veteran-owned
and service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses (VOBs and SDVOBs)
as they build relationships with DI and its customers. Ms. Newberry
also helps the VOBs and SDVOBs develop longstanding relationships with
the company through outreach events and business development meetings.
The
award was given to companies exceeding $1 billion in annual revenues
that include veteran-owned businesses in their supplier-diversity
programs. Veteran’s Business Journal ranked the companies based on
their overall veteran-owned business program, the assets they dedicate
to VOB outreach, an evaluation and comparison of their internal VOB
program, their VOB goals, their supplier-diversity personnel
infrastructure, and other supporting efforts.
