Recognition celebrates GovCon companies #doingittherightway
BTW & Co., a women-owned GovCon growth and proposal consultancy, has been recognized as an OrangeSlices PBC 2027 Elev8 GovCon honoree.
The Federal GovCon sector remains one of the most complex and competitive marketplaces in the world. The consistent, long-term winners are the companies that bring efficient, effective solutions to the table and also build a corporate culture that shows their own excellence. That culture makes them a beacon for talent, for partners, and for clients.
The Elev8 GovCon list is a select group of federal government contractors identified as #doingittherightway, based on outstanding results in several key areas:
- Good Partner: going above and beyond to provide support, mentorship, and engagement, and to collaborate so that partners and clients function as one successful team.
- Growing Your Talent: focusing on what is best for the individual.
- Philanthropy: driven by the team, by its focus, and by what is happening in the world and the communities it works in.
- Exemplify Innovation: guided by the principle that the status quo is not enough, and that they must do more and do better.
- Industry Engagement: mentorship, giving of time or services, and sharing of intel, involving people from across the company and driven by a desire to give back.
- Inclusive and Diverse: making sure many voices are heard and bringing different personalities together on shared efforts for the betterment of all involved.
- Sustainability Practices: doing their part and defining ways to #dobetter for themselves and their government clients.
- Investment for the Sake of Betterment: putting money behind the commitment to improve the work environment and experience, both for internal teams and for customer delivery.
According to OrangeSlices, these characteristics drive Elev8 GovCon and provide a major competitive edge, including higher levels of employee and customer engagement and loyalty, which translate into higher growth and profits.
“We are deeply honored and genuinely humbled to be recognized by OrangeSlices and the Elev8 GovCon program,” said Marcia Watson, CEO and Co-Founder of BTW & Co. “This recognition belongs to our entire team, our partners, and the clients who trust us with their most important pursuits. We are grateful to the GovCon community for seeing us, and we will keep working to earn it.”
“What makes this honor so meaningful is what it measures,” said Theresa Thomas, COO and Co-Founder of BTW & Co. “It looks at how we treat our people, how we show up for our partners, and how we give back, not only at what we deliver. We are thankful to OrangeSlices for this recognition, and we are committed to continuing to do this work the right way.”
