Mentor-Protégé 

Tetra Tech actively supports small businesses by participating in Mentor-Protégé Programs.

Tetra Tech has participated in a number of Mentor-Protégé Programs sponsored by the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA), the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD), the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). These programs allow small businesses to compete more successfully for federal contracts and to grow their business and capabilities.

Through these programs, we have assisted small, disadvantaged, woman-owned, native-owned, veteran-owned, and minority-owned businesses in developing their capabilities while at the same time gaining viable subcontractors to support our projects. Tetra Tech's involvement in the Mentor-Protégé Program has become an integral part of our procurement planning for our sponsoring projects.
