FALLS
CHURCH, Va.—June 9, 2008—DynCorp International (NYSE: DCP) has been
recognized for the second year in a row by Vetrepreneur magazine as one
of the United States’ 10 best corporations for veteran-owned
businesses. Vetrepreneur is the official magazine of the National
Veteran-Owned Business Association. The listing recognizes both efforts
and results by companies in doing business with veteran-owned suppliers
and contractors.
Vetrepreneur magazine’s June cover story
notes that “DynCorp International has significantly invested in its
marketing to find more potential veteran-owned business suppliers … and
was a sponsor of the 11th Annual Government Procurement Conference in
August 2007, paying the way for 100 veteran-owned small businesses to
attend without paying a fee.” In praising DynCorp International’s
efforts, Vetrepreneur singled out DynCorp International employee Debbie
Newberry and the DynCorp small-business office she manages. This office
assists veteran-owned businesses and service-disabled veteran-owned
small businesses in developing longstanding relationships with DynCorp
through outreach events and exposure to company personnel involved in
business development and procurement.
DynCorp International
is also sponsoring the Veteran-Owned Business Accountability Summit
being held June 12, 2008 in Washington, DC. This event is a landmark
public-private effort by two of the chief advocate organizations for
veterans in business, and through its sponsorship DynCorp is affirming
its corporate belief in the value of using veteran suppliers, who can
bring specific skills, knowledge and experience to its work.
