Supplier Diversity
Xerox is recognized as an industry leader in supplier diversity. We have established
partnerships with minority- and women-owned business enterprises (MWBE), veterans/service-disabled
veterans, HUBZone
programs and Protected Workshop Vendors. We are also establishing supplier relationships
with gay and lesbian business enterprises. Over the past 20 years, Xerox has purchased
more than $7 billion in goods and services from certified and qualified diverse
suppliers owned by minorities, women and veterans/service-disabled veterans. In
2007, Xerox purchased approximately $400 million in goods and services from certified
and qualified diverse suppliers. Total spending with certified and qualified diverse
suppliers represents 32% of Xerox's annual qualified purchases, one percentage point
above original targets.
