A diverse supplier is recognized as a business that is at least 51% owned and operated by an individual or group that that is part of a traditionally marginalized, underutilized, and underrepresented group.
While we are strongly encouraging supplier certification from one of the organizations below, we are currently accepting self-identification of diverse suppliers until December 2022. After this date, we will ask all of our suppliers to become certified so as to be considered a diverse supplier. We encourage all suppliers to get their certification from a third party local, state, or federal organization such as the National Minority Supplier Development Council or the Small Business Administration.
For more information or to be added to our diverse supplier list, please reach out.
