The Small Business Administration has given Huntington Ingalls Industries‘ SN3 subsidiary the green light to forge a mentor-protege relationship with environmental consulting firm Bay West.
SN3 will provide assistance to Bay West in the contracting, technical, business development and management areas as the latter company looks to pursue Energy Department market opportunities, Huntington Ingalls said Thursday.
An agreement signed between the two companies under SBA’s All Small Mentor-Protege Program will run through 2023 and is renewable for an additional three-year extension.
Bay West CEO Dave Anderson said, the mentor-protege agreement offers an opportunity for the company to grow and diversify its federal client base.
The ASMPP program allows compliant mentor-protege joint ventures to participate as a small business and compete for environmental remediation contracts in the federal government.
