Diversity, Equity and Inclusion

Our Commitment

We look forward to creating tens of thousands of meaningful jobs and opportunities for area residents and businesses. We are committed to diversity, equity, and inclusion at all levels of the organizations, which is why the Northeast Maglev Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Plan for Economic Opportunity in Maryland was created.

In addition to the creation of career opportunities and workforce development, this project will allow us to invest money back into our local communities, providing a substantial and lasting effect on our region’s economy.

Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion

Northeast Maglev has launched an initiative for Minority Business Enterprises (MBEs) and Women Business Enterprises (WBEs) to have access to contract and subcontract opportunities for work performed in Maryland.

Goals

Baltimore Washington Rapid Rail Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Business Opportunities Goals:

  • 25% of project spend on construction
  • 25% of spend on operations
  • 25% total organizational goal for permanent jobs
  • 40% construction-related employment

Business Opportunities

We believe diversity of thought, background and ethnicity are vital to the project’s sustained success and are actively working to create a culture that elevates this belief. Our mission is to promote the value and development of regional, small, and minority-owned and woman-owned businesses by offering fair and competitive opportunities to bid and participate in building the Superconducting Maglev.

These opportunities include training and employment in:

This transformative project will serve as a model for national infrastructure and regional planning and will strengthen the national economy. We hope you share our eagerness as we move from the planning phase and into execution in the coming years.

Workforce Development

We have developed this initiative in response to some of the systemic barriers that have often prevented communities of color and women from building skills and wealth.

Northeast Maglev is working to open opportunities for all Marylanders. This will include recruitment efforts to attract communities of color and women. Special emphasis will be on hiring individuals from Maryland jurisdictions along the SCMAGLEV train project’s route, where tens of thousands of construction and permanent jobs will be created.
