ATF Medical, a business specializing in medical equipment and supply that provides comprehensive, clinically based equipment and adaptive housing solutions to fulfill workers’ compensation claims, is proud to announce national certification as a Women’s Business Enterprise by the Greater Women’s Business Council (GWBC), a regional certifying partner of the Women’s Business Enterprise National Council (WBENC). WBENC Certification is the gold standard for women-owned business certification in the United States.

“We are honored to join the WBENC community,” said Susan Nelson, Chief Operating Officer, Chief Financial Officer, and Co-Owner of ATF Medical. “This certification is meaningful not only for our business, but for the partners and clients who prioritize working with diverse suppliers. It reinforces the standards of transparency, integrity, and collaboration we bring to every case we support.”

The WBENC standard of certification implemented by the GWBC is a meticulous process, including an in-depth review of the business and a site inspection. The certification process is designed to confirm the business is at least 51% owned, operated, and controlled by a woman or women, and that the business has appropriate structure and strategic business planning and implementation in place.

By including women-owned businesses among their suppliers, corporations and government agencies demonstrate their commitment to fostering diversity and the continued development of their supplier diversity programs, which in turn empowers women as leaders and brings about a more diverse, balanced and sustainable economy.

WBENC Certification combined with professional development and engagement in the WBENC network provides unsurpassed opportunities year-round, both virtually and in-person, for women-owned businesses to grow and expand their business and innovation through events, programming and connections with major corporations and other WBEs.
