Arlington, VA., November 13, 2018 – Halfaker announced the formation of a Small Business Administration (SBA) approved Mentor-Protégé Agreement with HigherEchelon, a Service-Disabled Veteran Owned Small Business (SDVOSB). The SBA Mentor-Protégé program is a business development initiative which enables small and large companies to build strong, mutualistic relationships with shared benefits and growth opportunities.
