Rodney Greenup Helps Minority-Owned Businesses Access Federal Contracting Opportunities
Greenup Industries has won several government contracts, and Rodney Greenup wants to share how its done.
Rodney Greenup, Founder, and CEO of Greenup Industries
An engineering visionary and construction leader, Greenup transforms infrastructure and communities by teaching business owners to win government contracts.
In August of 2025, Greenup co-hosted a three-day Zoom webinar with Dr. Karwanna Irving to teach business owners how to pursue federal contracts ranging from $2 million to $250 million without relying solely on DEI initiatives or minority set-asides. More information is available at howtowingovernmentcontracts.com.
As federal diversity incentives face increasing uncertainty, Greenup is partnering with the Black Directory to empower minority-owned businesses through strategy, partnerships, and education. Through upcoming Zoom seminars, participants will learn about subcontracting and joint venture opportunities, mentor-protégé agreements, teaming strategies, and how to position themselves for contracts in construction, engineering, professional services, and staff augmentation.
Greenup is also helping business owners understand the SBA's 8(a) Business Development Program, which provides eligible firms access to sole-source and set-aside contracts reserved for socially and economically disadvantaged businesses. In addition to contract opportunities, the program offers mentorship, training, and business development assistance designed to help companies grow and compete in the federal marketplace.
“This isn’t about waiting for a quota or a favor,” said Greenup. “This is about stepping into billion-dollar opportunities with preparation, partnerships, and proof. We’re looking to collaborate with minority firms who are ready to grow—because there’s room at the table, but only for those who know how to play the game.”
