Our PIE Program helps small, diverse and veteran-owned businesses sell goods and services to Washington state governments. We are also working on changing procurement culture in government purchasing and building pipeline of small, diverse and veteran-owned businesses on statewide goods and services contracts.
To do that, we:
- Provide training, networking and information about bid opportunities to small, diverse and veteran-owned businesses in Washington.
