HUBZone Empowerment Contracting Program
What does this mean?
 The HUBZone Empowerment Contracting Program stimulates economic development and creates jobs in urban and rural communities by providing Federal contracting preferences to small businesses. These preferences go to small businesses that obtain HUBZone (Historically Underutilized Business Zone) certification in part by employing staff who live in a HUBZone. The company must also maintain a "principal office" in one of these specially designated areas. A principal office can be different from a company headquarters. The program resulted from provisions contained in the Small Business Reauthorization Act of 1997.
What does this means for our customers?
Icon Construction, Inc. values the community in which they are located and understands the importance of being HUBZone certified. Icon prides itself in the numerous job opportunities that are offered to local residents and the benefits it brings to our customers. Our customers can take advantage of greater subcontracting opportunities available from large firms as the result of public-private partnerships.
