Diversity
Supplier diversity challenges
D/WBE, MBE, HUBZone, and Tier 2 reporting built into sourcing events, not bolted on after the fact.
What this video covers
- Discovery runs off a database of millions of diverse supplier records and certifications, so buyers see qualified diverse suppliers at invite time, not after the award.
- Tier 2 spend is collected from primes as structured data, with P-card and payroll-integrated tracking, rather than reconstructed from emailed spreadsheets.
- Certification status is held on the supplier record, so an expired certification drops out of the reported number instead of quietly inflating the board deck.
- Gainfront is an NMSDC- and WBENC-certified provider, and reports classified supplier ID lifts of 32% or more once inclusion sits on the same master as spend.
- An RFx concierge service brings net-new diverse suppliers into live events, so the pipeline grows out of sourcing activity rather than a separate outreach program.
