TURNKEY HAS THE UNIQUE ABILITY TO TRANSLATE CUSTOMER NEEDS INTO TRANSFORMATIVE SOLUTIONS

TURNKEY BUSINESS SOLUTIONS SERVICE OFFERINGS
Turnkey Business Solutions understands your plight. Regardless of your efforts to date, level of success or standing in the general community, Turnkey works to enhance what you've already accomplished. If that "enhancement" requires additional services to your already well established program and processes than that's where our assistance begins if that "enhancement" is still in the infancy stage, then that is where our assistance begins. Regardless of where you are along the path to success for your small, minority business identification & inclusion efforts, Turnkey can provide whatever you need to ensure that success occurs. 


Database Enhancement/Augmentation
For most municipal, corporate, and/or government entities, the process to alert the general public of business opportunities in their specific sector begins with a database. Universally, this database is populated with businesses that have taken the time, spent the money and employed the expertise (internally or external hiring) to be certified with this entity. In the short-term this works, but in the long term, this can present several obstacles from enough small, minority owned firms receiving notification of an opportunity to the parent entity receiving the right quality and quantity of qualified candidates for a specific job/opportunity.

 Turnkey can help!

Acting as your Small Business Resource Management & Compliance Partner, Turnkey brings with its multi-faceted approach to small business identification and inclusion solutions, the largest database of small, minority and woman owned businesses in the Greater Houston area. At well over 6,000 businesses in its database, our ability to successfully assist any client with opportunity notification, which thereby enhances their marketing outreach efforts, is guaranteed and immediate. Furthermore, this database of over 6,000 businesses isn’t just a repository of names and numbers, but an active, internal component to our business model. Turnkey’s Database Development and Resource Management team takes time to ensure contacts given to clients are adequately vetted. We don’t pride ourselves on the ability to provide a list. Anyone can do that. We pride ourselves on providing a vetted list of what our clients need to the extend they need it and when they need it most.  

Employment of the Turnkey database creates an immediate solution in multiple areas.

  • Better Matching of Small & Minority Firms with Presented Opportunities
  • Expanded Audience for Marketing & Outreach Efforts

  • Increased Likelihood of More Small & Minority Businesses Becoming Certified
