SUPPLIER DIVERSITY
Diversity Direct Creates the First Community Based Procurement Tool for Small and Diverse Businesses
D
iversity Direct, an innovative and patent-pending solu- tion that connects small, diversity suppliers with large
businesses, has created the first community based procure- ment technology platform. The tool, Diversity Connect, is available to mid-size and large businesses that are interested in improving the effectiveness of their Diversity Outreach Programs. Small, diverse businesses will use this tool to of- fer their human capital based services to major organizations in all markets. The technology enables the entire goodwill solution
to be successful and to connect valuable diversity part- ners to organizations that are truly committed to a com- munity-based procurement strategy. With a dozen clients, and hundreds of diversity partners engaged at the com- munity level, Diversity Direct has enabled over $6 mil- lion to be injected into economically depressed commu- nities, strengthened the balance sheets of our partners, and contributed positively to our clients out-reach effort. John Campellone, Executive Vice President, adds “With- out the strong commitments of our clients to diversity and Corporate Social Responsibility some of our partners would never have the opportunities presented during the recent economically challenging times.” “Without the strong commitments of our clients to diver-
sity and Corporate Social Responsibility some of our part- ners would never have the opportunities presented during the recent economically challenging times.” This tool also provides the analytics and transparency to
support account management, operations, recruitment and comprehensive mentoring programs for these small diverse businesses. “Diversity Connect’s core functionality and fu- ture development plan has been established by working closely with both our clients and diversity partners,” said Joel A. Jerva, Vice President of Diversity Direct. The tool is ca- pable of managing all temporary, permanent, 1099 (IC), and other staffing requirements, and is also becoming a portal for employee management. Within this tool, clients have the ability to create and track timecard data that can be directly imported to Quick Books. The screen scraped timecard data for supplier candidates generate invoices in Diversity Con- nect that suppliers can approve in the system. This process has been helpful in expediting timely payments for suppliers participating in our receivables funding program. In the upcoming days, Diversity Connect plans to imple- ment automatic generation of customer and supplier invoic-
