LBS has approximately 1,400 employees and provides contingency logistics, aerial port operations, transportation asset maintenance, ground support and other operations and maintenance services for infrastructure assets at defense and civilian facilities globally, WSP said Monday.

WPS purchased LBS through its acquisition of international professional services firm Louis Berger in 2018.
