“I have known Kim for over 5 years. Kim has been a client acting in a business development capacity managing a complex competitive procurement. In this position, he initiated and implemented a comprehensive program to identify, select and cultivate qualified minority-owned firms to participate in high-profile projects. His knowledge, inclusive approach, openess and communication skills was a fresh and welcome change. Ultimately, we decided to partner with him and his company in this and many other projects. We were fortunate to retain The McChin Group LLC to provide Business Development and Management expertise when Kim started the firm in 2003. His extensive contacts and networks have been critical in positioning us in the marketplace. He has helped us evaluate and negotiate deals, created budget and fiscal models, written proposals, recruited professionals, led strategic planning workshops and improve our bottom-line. As a service-provider in the Greater Baltimore region, we know that our Value Proposition lies not just in our technical abilities, but also in the relationships that we are able to cultivate and sustain. This coincidentally, is synonymous with Kim's approach. We recommend him." Jerome Robinson, CEO, STAR Associates, Maryland
