Mayo Clinic's Supplier Diversity Program ensures equal access to Mayo Clinic purchasing opportunities for all qualified suppliers. The program engages with diverse suppliers, including, but not limited to, women-owned, minority-owned and veteran-owned businesses, and other small and historically underutilized businesses, in the communities we serve.
Mayo Clinic's Supplier Diversity Numbers - 2021
- 2800+ Small and Diverse Suppliers, up 500+ / 21.7% from 2020
- $19.7M increase in spend with Certified Diverse Suppliers, including increases with certified Minority-Owned Business Enterprises (MBEs) and Minority Women-Owned Business Enterprises (MWBEs)
- 8.5% Impactful Spend, includes Tier 1 and Tier 1 1/2, spend with which Mayo has direct purchasing influence and opts to engage with the diverse supplier, but we are paying a non-diverse distributor
“Organizations play an influential role in advancing equity outside of their walls through the products and services they offer and in the way they manage business relationships with suppliers, distributors and customers.”
— Dr. Anjali Bhagra, Medical Director of the Mayo Clinic Office of Equity, Inclusion & Diversity
