2,800 businesses and counting: How SHI’s Supplier Diversity Program makes a difference

When people from all walks of life are given a seat at the table, we’re all better for it. If your organization has diversity-spending initiatives, then you know a diverse supply chain is a strong supply chain.

At SHI, diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) are foundational elements of our business practice. DEI empowers organizations to foster better collaboration, consider new and unique perspectives, and attract and retain competitive talent.

And by welcoming diverse businesses into SHI’s supplier network, we can strengthen our supply chain – as well as yours – with a vast array of IT products and services.

The power of diversity

As the largest Minority- and Women-Owned Business Enterprise (MWBE) in the United States, we know firsthand how diversity strengthens the workplace. And by partnering with diverse-owned businesses to achieve your goals, you can rest assured your partnerships align with your core values while achieving diversity-spending initiatives.

With nearly 2,800 diverse-owned businesses registered into our supplier database, we can help apply your initiatives to nearly every facet of your IT needs.

We help track and report diversity spending

With SHI, you can formally request we track and report Tier 2 Direct and Tier 2 Indirect spend. We provide these reports on a quarterly basis, and include breakdowns by diverse-owned business categories such as ethnicity, race, and gender classifications.

This makes it easy to track and improve upon your diversity spending and give stakeholders detailed analyses of where your money is going, which projects you’re funding, and how you’re progressing toward your goals.
