At Blunck Industrial Services, LLC, we have always been driven by a commitment to technical precision, operational safety, and unparalleled service in our journey as a boiler company. Today, we are proud to share a major milestone in the industrial sector. Blunck Industrial Services has officially been certified by the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) as a Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB) and an Economically Disadvantaged Women-Owned Small Business (EDWOSB).
Effective as of November 20, 2025, these certifications represent more than just a title for a boiler company. They are a testament to the hard work of our leadership, specifically Amy Blunck, and our entire team’s dedication to maintaining the highest standards of business integrity and professional excellence. As we move forward, these certifications will allow us to expand our reach, offering our specialized industrial expertise to federal agencies and prime contractors who value diversity and high-performance results.
More Than Just a Boiler Company: Understanding the WOSB and EDWOSB Program
The SBA’s Women-Owned Small Business Federal Contract Program was designed to help the federal government meet its goal of awarding at least 5% of all federal contracting dollars to women-owned small businesses, like our boiler company. By achieving both WOSB and EDWOSB status, Blunck Industrial Services is now eligible to compete for federal set-aside contracts.
These set-asides are specific opportunities where the pool of competition is limited to certified businesses, ensuring that agencies can meet their socioeconomic goals while partnering with qualified experts. For Blunck Industrial, this means we are now positioned to bring our root cause analysis, boiler room optimization, and emergency repair services to a broader range of government-funded infrastructure and facility management projects.
Why This Certification Matters for Our Clients
For our existing and future partners in the private and public sectors, our new certification status provides several key benefits:
- Federal Goal Alignment: Prime contractors working on federal projects often have subcontracting goals for WOSB and EDWOSB participation. Partnering with us helps you meet these requirements seamlessly.
- Verified Excellence: The SBA certification process is rigorous. Our approval confirms that Blunck Industrial Services is a legitimate, woman-owned entity that meets strict federal standards for ownership, management, and financial stability.
- Increased Capacity: With the ability to compete for larger federal awards, we continue to grow our capacity to serve the Intermountain West, including Utah, Idaho, Wyoming, Nevada, and Colorado.
- Public Accountability: Our certification is publicly listed and verifiable through the SBA’s search portal, providing a layer of transparency and trust for every procurement officer we work with.
Our Commitment to Continued Eligibility
Receiving a certification letter is only the first step. The SBA requires a high level of ongoing compliance to maintain these credentials. As a standout boiler company servicing Utah, Idaho, Wyoming, and Colorado, Blunck Industrial Services is fully committed to upholding these standards to ensure we remain a reliable partner for years to come. Furthermore, these certifications enable us to pursue federal contracts across all 50 states.
According to the guidelines provided by the SBA, our team is responsible for the following:
- Triennial Renewal: We are required to renew our certification every three years from our initial approval date. Our first renewal is scheduled for November 20, 2028.
- Reporting Changes: We must notify the SBA within 30 calendar days of any significant changes to our business ownership, management, or structure.
- Annual SAM.gov Validation: We must validate our business information in the System for Award Management (SAM.gov) at least once a year to maintain an active and eligible registration for contract awards.
- Program Examinations: We are prepared for program examinations, which may include on-site visits or virtual audits by the SBA to verify our continuing eligibility.
- Subcontracting Compliance: When performing on set-aside contracts, we strictly adhere to the prime-contractor limitations on subcontracting rules as outlined in 13 CFR 125.6.
Strategic Growth and New Opportunities for Our Boiler Company
With these certifications, Blunck Industrial Services is ready to leverage new tools and resources provided by the SBA. From access to the Surety Bond Guarantee Program, which can increase our bonding capacity for contracts up to $10M, to collaborating with APEX Accelerators for government contracting expertise, we are investing in the future of our company and our clients.
We are also excited to utilize the official SBA-approved digital icons on our website. While the SBA has strict guidelines—such as prohibiting the use of these icons on company letterhead or for the endorsement of specific goods—we are proud to display them as a badge of our certified status and our commitment to the small business community.
A Message from Our Leadership
Achieving EDWOSB and WOSB status is a proud moment for Amy Blunck and the entire team. This milestone reinforces our position as a leading boiler company in the industrial services field. We aren’t just a service provider; we are a partner in your operational success. Whether we are tuning a burner for maximum efficiency or managing a complex controls upgrade, we bring a level of detail and dedication that is now backed by federal recognition.
