Supplier Diversity

Artech's supplier diversity policy affirms that certified diverse suppliers are provided the maximum opportunity to participate in providing products and services to the firm.

Artech is committed to continuing its purchasing initiatives from minority, women, disabled veteran and small businesses. By including qualified diverse suppliers, Artech continues to sharpen their own competitive edge - providing customers with cost effective and innovative solutions. These mutually beneficial relationships contribute toward the sustained success at Artech and its diverse suppliers.

Artech, as a diversity company itself, is doubly committed to nurturing other diversity organizations. To this end, Artech has created its Vendors-in-Partnership (VIP) program for identifying, qualifying and developing diverse suppliers as a means to support Artech's client-partners' utilization goals while providing a wider breadth of services and skill sets.

Artech will continue to lead the effort in recognizing the economic importance of utilizing diverse suppliers in the communities.
