LINXS Certified Firm Outreach

LINXS is partnering with Small Business Enterprises (SBE), Disabled Veteran Business Enterprises (DVBE), Local Business Enterprises (LBE), Local Small Business Enterprises (LSBE) and other diverse businesses interested in opportunities on the Automated People Mover (APM) project. The Project provides a unique opportunity to invest in Los Angeles’ businesses and the people and communities those businesses support. LINXS has proudly committed to dedicating 30% of the Design and Construction value to certified firms. That commitment represents more than $585 million in work, an investment we are proud to make towards growing small businesses. At least $85 million will be entirely committed to LSBEs and will stay in Los Angeles County to strengthen the local economy.
