I am in the "NEMT" industry. I have operated in this industry for over 13 years. I currently am a provider that have my drivers transport my clients to their doctor appointments and pharmacy trips etc. I operate in several states and now am looking to become a broker in the industry. A broker basically controls thousands of trips daily and disburse those trips to assigned providers like I currently have done for the past 13 years. I am in the process of finishing up my GSA schedule that got mishandled. I just found your channel I am hopeful that as a minority I get my foot in the door with the "Brokering" side of the business. For twenty years as a minority business owner, we participated in state, federal and local bids. Because of affirmative action, we were very successful at receiving many awards. This was on the retail side only. We sold items from our true value franchise from 1980 through 2000. I would like to join your network in an effort to get my foot back in the door with government contracts once again.
