Supplier Diversity Program

Supporting Historically Underutilized Businesses

What is a Supplier Diversity Program?

Supplier diversity programs focus on enabling companies to use a broader range of historically underutilized suppliers, including small businesses and those that are minority-owned, women-owned, LGBTQ+-owned, disabled-owned, veteran-owned, and service-disabled-veteran-owned.

Supplier diversity at Husch Blackwell

Our core focus is on using suppliers that submit certification under current requirements for Minority/Women-owned Business Enterprise (MWBE) status in their home state. Alternatively, businesses not yet certified may submit our affidavit stating that they are at least 51% operated, controlled, and owned by minority, women, disabled, veteran, LGBTQ+, or service-disabled veteran persons, and/or other historically underutilized businesses, including small business vendors.

There is very little HB attorneys can’t do for us. On the extraordinarily rare occasion that HB attorneys do not feel they have the precise skills we need on a given matter, they are very candid and honest in saying so. This level of integrity and genuine care for our success is one of the key reasons we continue to return to HB.
