Join us as the University of Virginia Procurement and Supplier Diversity Team explains the process to doing business across grounds.

Background
What is Procurement and Supplier Diversity?

• Procurement is the process of purchasing goods or services, usually in reference to business spending. Business procurement requires preparation, solicitation, and payment processing, which usually involves several areas of a company
• Supplier diversity is a business strategy aimed at developing a more inclusive base of suppliers when procuring goods and services. This benefits the suppliers themselves and the broader business ecosystem and society.
