# Maryland Firm Expands Supplier Credentials

Collaborative Shared Technologies LLC received National Minority Supplier Development Council (NMSDC) Minority Business Enterprise certification on October 7, 2026, adding to its Maryland and Prince George’s County small-business designations and federal WOSB, VOSB, and SDVOSB certifications. The Upper Marlboro-based firm offers knowledge management, AI readiness, information governance, and digital modernization services. The announcement identifies no specific solicitation or contract award, but the additional credential may support the firm’s pursuit of applicable supplier-diversity, subcontracting, and teaming opportunities.

- Procurement teams and prime contractors can assess the firm’s certifications when considering suppliers for opportunities with applicable diversity or small-business participation criteria; certification alone does not establish eligibility for a particular procurement.
- Collaborative Shared Technologies LLC may use the added MBE credential in relevant state and local procurement, subcontracting, and teaming pursuits, alongside its existing federal designations.
- The announcement lists supplier diversity and procurement inquiries at supplier@collaborativesharedtechnologies.com and teaming inquiries at partner@collaborativesharedtechnologies.com.
