M/WBE Letter Grade
Letter Grade Overview
LPC does a very small amount of procurement but continues to spend with M/WBE firms. LPC exceeded spending goals for Black American-owned firms in professional services, Hispanic American-owned firms in standard services, and Asian American-owned firms in construction. These successes resulted in an overall B grade for a second year in a row.
