NC Military Business Center

Mr. Scott Dorney

Long Business Description

The North Carolina Military Business Center (NCMBC) is a statewide business development and technology transition entity of the State of North Carolina, headquartered at and supported by Fayetteville Technical Community College (FTCC). The mission of the NCMBC is to leverage military and other federal business opportunities to expand the economy, grow jobs and improve quality of life in North Carolina.

The NCMBC’s primary goal is to increase federal revenues for businesses in North Carolina. The Department of Defense has an annual impact of $66 billion and is the second largest sector of North Carolina’s economy (12% GDP). With six major military bases, over 100 National Guard and Reserve facilities and the third highest number of uniformed military personnel in the country, the State of North Carolina created the NCMBC to leverage opportunities with these installations, DoD commands and federal agencies operating worldwide.

The NCMBC connects North Carolina firms to current government contracting opportunities in two ways – with a team of business development specialists across the state who also provide technical services, and electronically with www.MatchForce.org.

Business Development. The NCMBC’s business development team includes experienced business development, industry and procurement specialists operating from 12 Community Colleges across the state – from Hendersonville to Elizabeth City. These specialists identify the most lucrative federal contract opportunities (prime and subcontracts), notify and pre-position North Carolina firms for specific opportunities, and assist firms to understand government solicitations, prepare winning proposals and to successfully execute federal contracts.

MatchForce. To connect North Carolina businesses with all federal opportunities, including local opportunities at bases in the state, the NCMBC administers the State’s official, FREE web portal for federal contracting – www.MatchForce.org. North Carolina businesses register on the portal and receive automatic matches to federal prime opportunities and to subcontracting opportunities posted by other registered businesses. Firms identifying contract opportunities through MatchForce can then contact the NCMBC business development team for one-on-one assistance.

Strategic Initiatives Program. In addition to business development and MatchForce, the NCMBC conducts several strategic initiatives. These initiatives include:

Market intelligence – identifying future business opportunities in key sectors
Pre-positioning and training – for future and current opportunities
Current business development – connecting businesses to contract opportunities
Solicitation and proposal support – assisting businesses to compete and win
Training and resources – providing tools to overcome contracting obstacles
Events and networking – focused on target sectors including statewide Summits for the medical, aerospace, cybersecurity, military construction and textile and soldier systems industries

DEFTECH. The NCMBC also established the North Carolina Defense Technology Transition Office (DEFTECH) to enable North Carolina’s innovation ecosystem to address complex national security problems, and increase economic opportunities for businesses in the state. The NCMBC and DEFTECH serve military commands and federal agencies worldwide, connecting their requirements with the North Carolina industrial and innovation ecosystem. The NCMBC and DEFTECH are unique combat multipliers that leverage industrial capacity statewide and drive private sector innovation, research and development directly to DoD, federal agencies and major military commands worldwide.

Long Business Description

NC4ME leverages existing workforce development resources and technology to implement a unique, employer-centric strategy to connect military talent to business needs. NC4ME is unique in that it is ONE team, to include State Government: The Governor’s Office, the Department of Military and Veterans Affairs, and the Department of Commerce (NC Works), NC National Guard and companies throughout North Carolina working together to change the military employment climate in North Carolina. NC4ME’s strategy involves actively engaging every critical player in the employment process. It starts at the strategic level, by showing senior business leaders that military talent is perfectly suited to drive business results in their industry. From there, human resource and recruiting professionals are taught how to find and assess qualified military talent. Finally, military job seekers are shown the breadth of organizations ready to hire them in industries across North Carolina. To execute this strategy, NC4ME has created a partnership of organizations hand-picked based on their proven ability to operate effectively at critical points in the employment process. This includes the NC Department of Commerce, which serves as the State’s lead proponent for workforce support activities; the NC Society for Human Resource Management, which is the accrediting body for over 6,000 human resource professionals; Onward to Opportunity (020) which offers multiple pathways for accredited training; and the transition assistance offices from each military installation in North Carolina. Adopting this partnership model for service delivery dramatically reduces operating costs, redundancy, and confusion in NC’s military support infrastructure. To accomplish its mission, NC4ME has centered its programming around three primary goals:

● Learn Why: Educate strategic business leaders on the value of hiring high performing military talent.
● Learn How: Provide accredited human resource training on how to recruit, select, and retain high performing military talent.
● Connect employers with high performing military talent to drive business results.
