The City of Indianapolis Office of Minority and Women Business Development (OMWBD) announced the launch of its new Certification Management System (B2GNOW).
This platform’s purpose is to streamline the certification process for vendors in the City’s XBE Program by offering a way to register, submit applications, update business information, and search for certified firms.
As of April 1, 2026, OMWBD no longer accepts paper applications. All certifications, re-certifications, and supporting documents must now be submitted through the B2GNOW platform.
The system features an enhanced online certification directory with keyword search, direct email communication on compliance matters, and fully electronic certification and renewal applications.
Vendors must log in to update or create a password, review their profile, and check that all contact information is current. Most vendors will find their username is their existing business email address, and previously certified firms should have an account.
Vendors currently certified with the Indiana Department of Administration can request the supporting documents previously submitted for certification to be sent to OMWBD to expedite the application process. Businesses can check status and access training materials at indy.gob2g.com .
Live training sessions, online modules, and technical support through the B2GNOW Support Team are also available.
