MAPS Private Sector Engagement (PSE)
The purpose of the MAPS Private Sector Engagement (PSE) Committee is to lead MAPS engagement with Muslim-led companies and organizations who partner with government agencies, also known as government contractors. While MAPS inherently serves government employees, we recognize and value the contributions of private entities working with the government as essential for government success.
Comprehensive support for Muslim Owned or Operated Private Firms & Contractors
Navigate your public service journey as a private firm or contractor with targeted support designed to break barriers and amplify your potential in government and civic leadership. MAPS Private Sector Engagement (PSE) Committee offers three areas of support from the best our community and institutional access has to offer.
