As a premium consulting company, Big Apple Infotech knows first-hand the critical importance of supplier diversity programs. Developing mutually beneficial relationships with diverse high-quality suppliers is simply good citizenship, contributing to the economic vibrancy of the communities in which we do business. The specific objectives of Big Apple Infotech’s supplier diversity program are:

Help a qualified, diverse set of suppliers compete with other, well-established firms

Mentor and guide these suppliers toward growth

Achieve an annual spend rate of 25% among this base, either directly or through our supplier's subcontracts

One way to meet these objectives is to make sure we are conducting a portion of our business with suppliers that have been certified as one or more of the following:

• Minority Business Enterprise
• Women’s Business Enterprise (WBE)
• HUBZone small business concern
• Small business, small disadvantaged business (SDB), or 8(a) small business, as certified by the U.S. SBA
• Veteran-owned business or service-disabled, veteran-owned business
• Historically black colleges and universities (HBC/U)
