Local Business Enterprises (LBE) & Minority and Women-owned Business Enterprises (MWBE)
We believe that the contractors working with the Port Authority should reflect the diversity of the communities we serve. To that end, we have enacted a goal of awarding 20 percent of contracts to certified Minority-owned businesses (MBE) and 10 percent of contracts to certified Women-owned businesses (WBE), with a special attention towards and prioritization of local business enterprises (LBE).
LBEs and MWBEs
Businesses with LBE designation or MWBE certification have the opportunity to grow their business and access billions of dollars in contracting opportunities with the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey ─ such as those that the JFK Redevelopment Program offers.
They become eligible to participate in the Port Authority’s supplier diversity program, which offers contracting opportunities, capacity-building incentives, and support services, networking events, and business development sessions.
Businesses are included on the Port Authority’s online directory, which is utilized by the agency and partners across the region.

The JFK Redevelopment Community Advisory Council developed a community initiative to match local job seekers with positions in both airport construction and airport operations — with a focus on underserved neighborhood of Far Rockaway and the surrounding communities. In response, the CAO in partnership with RDRC founded the Rockaway Career Center to ensure that the job recruiting programs and outreach are as accessible as possible.
