Next Phase Announces U.S. Small Business Administration Mentor-Protégé Collaboration with Consolidated Safety Services, Inc.
Next Phase Solutions and Services, Inc. (Next Phase), an SBA Certified 8(a), and Economically Disadvantaged, Woman-Owned Small Business (EDWOSB) focused on engineering, science and IT services, and Consolidated Safety Services, Inc. (CSS), Inc., a leader in health and safety services, are pleased to announce our collaboration in the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) Mentor-Protégé Program.
This strategic partnership is designed to strengthen Next Phase’s capabilities and competitiveness in the federal marketplace while expanding CSS’s reach and impact across federal agencies. The SBA Mentor-Protégé Program pairs small and disadvantaged businesses with experienced companies to provide business development support, enhance technical expertise, and create new opportunities for growth in the federal technology and services marketplace.
“Next Phase is thrilled to have CSS as a mentor. We know that we will benefit tremendously from their guidance and assistance,” said Lisa Wolff, President, Next Phase. “Our strong reputation and track record for delivery in the Federal sector at NOAA, NASA, DHS, and HHS make Next Phase a valuable protégé and partner to CSS.
SBA-recognized mentors are given limited small business standing, and as an approved SBA mentor, CSS will offer its significant capabilities to a greater range of Federal agencies. “We are excited to elevate our combined services to further advance the capture, analysis, and application of science-based data in the health and environmental sectors,” said Jolanda Janczewski, Ph.D., President and Chairman of the Board for CSS.
As part of the mentor-protégé relationship, CSS will provide Next Phase with comprehensive support in key areas such as health and safety services, environmental management, and human health. This collaboration will also include guidance and direct support in various areas, including industry certifications, market entry strategies, and federal contract administration and compliance.
