Company History

6 Degrees Consulting was founded on May 1, 2006. Bob Lawson was, and continues to be, the sole principal in 6 Degrees consulting which primarily focused on business development and marketing for construction companies in the local area. In this capacity the founder quickly realized the void in the local market for minority certified contractors, and the opportunity in the local market for services requiring minority participation. At present, 6 Degrees is utilizing the talent of local construction professionals and consultants in preparing to efficiently enter in this market on a negotiated basis.

Market Environment

6 Degrees Consulting is located in Pittsburgh, the center of the region’s construction boom. All available market information indicates that the region’s construction dollars spent will range in the $3 Billion annual range for the foreseeable future, with substantial amounts of funding derived from state and federal agencies.

 

These funding agencies require percentages of work to be derived from MBE / WBE (Women Business Enterprise) certified businesses. We feel that the market opportunities will exist at all levels of government funded or assisted projects. In addition, select private owners who require utilization of the local WBE and MBE intend to utilize our MBE status to satisfy the contract requirements of these projects. We realize that with much projected growth comes an enormous growth opportunity. However, we are cognizant that we must remain within our management capabilities and cash flow restrictions.
