LSEDV Participation Support

The Los Angeles Community College District’s Professional Services Department is seeking subcontracting or joint venture partners to support compliance with its 30% Local, Small, Emerging, and Disabled Veteran-Owned Business participation goal on professional services projects. This opportunity is targeted toward businesses that qualify as Local, Small, Emerging, or Disabled Veteran-Owned to form collaborative arrangements with prime contractors, ensuring the district meets its diversity and inclusion targets. The solicitation is open to eligible firms aligned with NAICS code 541330, which covers architectural, engineering, and related services, and participation is expected to directly contribute to project execution under the district’s professional services contracts. Interested parties must submit their responses by September 2, 2026, at 7:00 PM Pacific Time. While no formal set-aside designation is specified, the intent is to facilitate partnerships that enable qualified LSEDV businesses to gain meaningful involvement in large-scale professional services initiatives. The opportunity is not tied to a specific project but serves as a mechanism to connect capable subcontractors and joint venture candidates with prime contractors working on future LACCD contracts. Participation does not guarantee contract award but provides a pathway for eligible firms to be recognized and considered in upcoming bids. All communications and submissions must be made through the designated vendor portal linked in the posting.
