Specific and Meaningful Involvement of MSVDBEs
Parametrix believes strongly in the benefits of creating opportunities for MSVDBEs throughout all phases of a project. Working with disadvantaged and small business enterprises contributes to great insight in terms of community needs, enhances planning
and design quality, and increases community acceptance of the project. In structuring teams, Parametrix builds on our established relationships with:
- MSVDBEs and seeking new ones to select the best people from the best firms representing the diversity of the region. Maximizing participation by firms that have previous experience with the client and a variety of disciplines.
- Capitalizing on new opportunities to improve the team’s diversity, talent, and contributions to the community.
Parametrix places many partner firms in prominent roles, gives them access to the client, and provides training on our project management and Quality Assurance (QA) process.
