NMSDC Certified Minority-Owned Security Services

Protecting your people, property, and assets with professional minority-certified security guards committed to excellence, diversity, and compliance.

What Is NMSDC Certification?

The National Minority Supplier Development Council (NMSDC) provides certification for businesses that are at least 51% owned, operated, and controlled by members of recognized minority groups. 

This designation verifies that a company meets strict eligibility standards and has completed a formal certification process. Through its network of more than 1,750 corporate members and 23 regional affiliates, NMSDC connects certified MBEs to meaningful business opportunities, strengthens diverse supply chains, and drives economic growth.

For security service providers, this certification demonstrates verified ownership status and business credibility within national supplier diversity programs. Organizations seeking MBE-certified security partners often rely on NMSDC certification as proof that a company qualifies as a diverse supplier and operates according to established compliance standards.

Because of its rigorous verification process, NMSDC certification is widely recognized by corporations, government entities, and procurement teams looking to partner with a certified diversity security provider that aligns with their diversity and supplier inclusion initiatives.
