Welcome to the Dartmouth College Supplier Diversity Program
Procurement Services is committed to developing mutually advantageous business relationships with suppliers of various goods and services. Our Supplier Diversity Program is built upon a successful collaboration between the College and its supplier community. We understand that the health and vitality of the Dartmouth College is inextricably linked to the quality of life in our community, our surrounding area, and our global environment. Therefore, our broader interests include paying attention to our relationships with businesses owned by minorities, women, veterans and service-disabled veterans, the disabled, as well as small businesses located in and outside the Upper Valley.
Each year, the Dartmouth Community purchases a broad range of products and services. We in Procurement Services are responsible for identifying the best valued, highest quality products and services by encouraging competition among all suppliers. We encourage all suppliers to review our business requirements and contact us regarding any questions or concerns. These requirements are listed in our Vendor Guide in the policies and procedures section of our website (http://www.dartmouth.edu/~purchase/procurement/policies/index.html). As you browse this site, we hope that you will see compelling evidence of our commitment to form alliances with diverse businesses.
Dartmouth has a deep commitment to supplier diversity and strongly encourages our suppliers who conduct business with the College to establish a similarly strong commitment to diversity by assisting Procurement Services in developing and implementing value-added partnerships. Procurement Services acknowledges and offers opportunities to those suppliers who assist us in our supplier diversity initiatives.
If you would like an opportunity to conduct business with the College, and provide the products and services required by our faculty, staff, and students, we welcome and encourage you to contact us to explore your potential business opportunities.
