I work as an HR Manager in an IT company. My company is planning to sign a contract with a third company to recruit employees for them globally, essentially as an outsourcing vendor. For this, having a Diversity Certificate for the US market is mandatory. Could you please let me know how we can obtain the DC for US operations and what the eligibility criteria are? Please note that we have our registered office in the US.

Hi Ankita,

What I understand from sources is that a Supplier Diversity program is a proactive business program that encourages the use of minority-owned, women-owned, veteran-owned, LGBT-owned, service-disabled veteran-owned, historically underutilized businesses, and Small Business Administration (SBA)-defined small business concerns as suppliers.

A Supplier diversity commitment benefits a company because it promotes innovation through the entrance of new products, services, and solutions. It provides multiple channels from which to procure goods and services and drives competition (on price and service levels) between the company's existing and potential vendors.

I'm not fully aware of the requirements, so see if the attached material would help in case. Pardon me if this is not of any help.

From India, Bangalore
