**Dear Katherine,**

**Re: Women Business Certification**  
Congratulations on receiving the information that you supplied; we are certifying your business under the Business Enterprise Program (BEP) for Minority Business Enterprise (MBE).

This certification is in effect with the State.

At least 15 days prior to the anniversary date of your certification, you are required to renew your certification as a condition of continued certification. It is your responsibility to ensure that the information in the system is accurate and up to date and that the email account is checked regularly.

In addition, should any changes occur in ownership and/or control of the firm, you are required to notify BEP within two weeks. Failure to notify may impact your certification status.

Your firm's name will appear in the State's Directory as a certified vendor in the area(s) of:

- **NIGP 28029: Communication and Telecommunications**

Your firm will only show up in the database of BEP-certified vendors. **LIST CAREFULLY TO ENSURE THAT ALL RELEVANT NIGP CODES ARE INCLUDED**.

Also, please be advised that this certification does not guarantee that your firm will receive state contracts. Please visit the Registration page on [www.opportunities.illinois.gov](http://www.opportunities.illinois.gov/) and be sure to register in order to be notified of upcoming solicitations in your NIGP codes. Certification alone does not ensure notifications; you must also register with the Procurement Bulletin.

Thank you for your participation in the Business Enterprise Program. Wishing you success.
