One of the region’s largest purchasers of goods and services, Premier Health, will host its second annual Supplier Diversity Community Outreach event.
During this free event, local women- and minority-owned businesses will learn how to become vendor-partners so that Premier Health can continue to use local talent to serve patients and families in the community. Attendees will learn not only how to do business with Premier Health, but also meet with decision-makers and learn more about upcoming projects within the organization.
Supplier diversity has long been a focus for Premier Health. In 2016, minority- and women-owned businesses received nearly 55 percent of the health system’s construction spending. All Premier Health hospitals track and promote supplier diversity throughout the year.
Premier Health was recently presented with the 2017 Supplier Diversity Award from Vizient, a national leader in health care supply chain procurement. The Supplier Diversity Award honors hospitals for promoting inclusion in their supply chain and accelerating economic growth in their local communities through the engagement and empowerment of minority- and women-owned businesses.
