Why does SGI have a Supplier Diversity program?

We are committed to and support our supplier diversity program because it is essential to our company goals.

The diversity of our supply chain partners uniquely positions us to maximize productivity and creativity and to successfully bring innovative solutions to our clients in the global business environment.  Through our partnerships, we can deliver the very best products and services for the benefit of our customers and SGI, while also contributing to the economic development of the communities we serve.”  Greg Gates, President/CEO, SGI

What actions are you taking to promote Supplier Diversity?

Like you, we believe that creating a diverse supply chain is not only the right thing to do, but also enhances our competitive position by bringing a wider range of ideas and perspectives to our systems and processes.  For more information concerning our efforts with respect to Supplier Diversity, please see other FAQ’s about Supplier Diversity or contact us directly.  We appreciate your commitment to a diverse workplace and leadership in this vital area.

How do woman-, minority- and service disabled veteran-owned suppliers learn about upcoming opportunities to work with SGI?

We welcome all certified WMDVBE suppliers who want to work with us to contact us to discuss partnering opportunities and to complete our Supplier Registration form.  We will keep your information in our supplier database to reference when contracting opportunities become available, at which time we may contact you for a copy of your current certification documentation, along with company brochures that briefly describe your core competencies.

We also encourage interested WMDVBE suppliers to become certified with the CPUC’s Supplier Clearinghouse.  To learn more about the CPUC’s certification process, including Fast Track Verification, please visit the Supplier Clearinghouse, a CPUC-supervised certification body, at www.thesupplierclearinghouse.com.

Why don’t you offer a printed catalogue of your products?
With over 1.5 million items in our on-line product catalogue (a listing which continues to grow daily), we believe that our website provides a more accurate and complete representation of the products available through SGI.  (Furthermore, printed catalogues often become outdated very quickly, resulting in higher operating costs, which invariably find their way into product pricing.)
