SUPPLIER DIVERSITY:
Wabtec values diversity among our suppliers and acknowledges the following supplier classifications:
- Minority-owned Business Enterprise (MBE)
- Women-owned Business Enterprise (WBE)
- Veteran-owned Business Enterprise (VBE)
- Service-Disabled Veteran-owned Business Enterprise (SDVOBE)
- LGBT+-owned Business Enterprise (LGBTBE)
- Disability-owned Business Enterprise (DOBE)

These classifications are provided to Wabtec via Duns & Bradstreet which is verified either through supplier self identification or supplier registration. Additionally, as part of supplier onboarding process Wabtec obtains this information directly from suppliers who self identify.
Wabtec is also recognized as part of the Transit Vehicle Manufactures (TVM) List as a provider who has submitted a DBE goal methodology that FTA has not disapproved and are therefore are eligible to bid or propose on FTA-assisted transit vehicle procurements.
