Why Brown Management
The SBE Sub That Protects Your Contract
Most SBE subs check a box. Brown Management eliminates the audit risk that comes with managing public funds.
Certified SBE / SB
City of Long Beach SBE CERT0000002811 · NAICS 541611 · Effective 03/20/2026. Satisfies mandatory 25% SBE participation goals on state, county, and municipal contracts.
Licensed Professional Fiduciary
CLPF #790 — the only credential that authorizes court-supervised fund management. Not a bookkeeper. Not a consultant. A licensed fiduciary.
Court-Admissible Reporting
Every transaction is logged, audited, and reportable. Our Cyber Fiduciary OS™ produces documentation that survives any audit, public records request, or court review.
Self-Funding Recovery Model
Our forensic audit triggers recover overbilling and tax errors — often generating savings that exceed our fee. We are the SBE sub that pays for itself.
No-Bid Eligible
Contracts under $249,999 qualify for the SBE/SB Set-Aside pathway. Your prime contract can include Brown Management without a separate competitive bid.
Neutral Third-Party Status
As an Active Neutral, we represent the fund — not the prime, not the agency, not any vendor. That independence protects your contract from conflict-of-interest challenges.
