The North Carolina Military Business Center (NCMBC), a business development and technology transition entity of the State of North Carolina embedded in the State’s community colleges and headquartered at Fayetteville Technical Community College, has just announced that businesses executed $7.38 billion in federal prime contracts in North Carolina in FY2023.
“Each of these prime contracts – and perhaps billions more in subcontracts – grows jobs, expands the economy and tax base and improves quality of life for everyone in North Carolina,” said Scott Dorney, NCMBC Executive Director, in a press release. “The defense and federal economy in North Carolina remained strong in 2023, as businesses of all sizes across the state leveraged sustained opportunities to grow their federal business portfolios. The State's investment in growing the defense economy and its commitment to sustaining our military installations and warfighters are benefiting all North Carolinians every day."
