WBE Certification LogoLPS is pleased to announce that effective September 4th we became certified as a Woman business enterprise.  The National Woman Business Owners Corporation is the "First National Certifier of Woman Business Enterprises".  NWBOC provides a national certification program for Woman-owned businesses. The certification, called "Woman Business Enterprise" (WBE) Certification, ensures that a private, for-profit company is truly owned and controlled by a woman or Woman.  We have worked hard to achieve this certification and are pleased to pass on this news to our customers. 

This certification is also valuable to you; our clients/customers because it allows you to utilize credit towards your minority/diversity spend requirements. 

The NWBOC certification is very important to LPS and we are starting the process of launching a marketing initiative to make the most of our affiliation.  We are confident that as a certified woman-owned enterprise, LPS will find new opportunities to secure procurement leads.
