Encourage Suppliers to Get Small Business Certification

UCSF is committed to leveraging dollars spent to invest in our local and regional communities. The University’s supplier diversity and inclusion efforts seek to provide access to opportunities to reach 25 percent spend in addressable procurement with certified small and diverse businesses.

To help in this effort, in August, UCSF held a webinar for suppliers that featured certification tips for businesses who have or would like to execute a small business certification. UCSF also hosted our strategic partners at the State of California Department of General Services Procurement Division and Office of Small Business and Disabled Veteran Enterprise Services.
