MBDA-DoD Lynx Platform

MBDA and the Department of Defense have signed a historic Interagency Agreement to create a new online tool that will help Minority Business Enterprises (MBEs) more easily find and navigate opportunities to work with the federal government. This tool will:

  • Support MBEs: Help MBEs create profiles highlighting their company’s capabilities and match them with tailored opportunities, resources, and guides on doing business with agencies like the Department of Defense (DoD), Department of Commerce (DOC) and many others.
  • Simplify Procurement: Show MBEs where to find government contracts and guide them on cybersecurity requirements, which are often complex.
  • Leverage Technology: Use cutting-edge tools to offer personalized “journey maps” showing MBEs the steps to engage with federal procurement and local resources along with how they can evolve their business to capture increasingly larger opportunities .

By funding this platform with DoD, MBDA aims to simplify the federal contracting process for MBEs, giving them better tools and guidance to succeed.
