Small Business Certifications

The Primestone Group, founded by Shantel Evans, a decorated U.S. Space Force and combat veteran, is a minority and woman-owned small business.


Primestone is a certified Service Disabled Veteran Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) and Woman Owned Small Business. Primestone also holds minority (MBE) certifications with a variety of city, state, and local agencies.


As a firm with these certifications, Primestone understands the value it brings to potential teaming partners. It is more than checking a box for diversity and inclusion goals; it is about adding real, tangible benefits.

"I’ve worked hard to establish a strong reputation and these certifications validate that. When firms partner with me, they’re not just gaining my skills, but a unique perspective and innovative solutions that come from my lived experiences. I am proud to contribute to creating a more equitable business landscape, and I’m eager to show partners that working with a certified minority business isn’t just a good deed, it’s a smart business decision."
