This program gives MBEs the chance to hear directly from procurement officers at Pacesetter corporations to learn about their specific processes and expectations, RFP and bidding preferences, contract cycles, and more.
These awards help shine a brighter light on outstanding efforts and achievements, as well as highlight best practices – both of which lead to economic inclusion for MBEs.
Providing bias training to Pacesetter procurement officers supports their path towards supplier diversity, so they can work with MBEs and the high standard of delivery and innovation that they offer.
