The Kimball Office Supplier Diversity Program review process involves the following steps:
- Complete the New MWBE Supplier Form and send to the Kimball Office Global Sourcing Group.
- Your business website address, which contains product and services information for your company
- Contact email and phone numbers
- Confirmation that your company is HUBZone certified and is indeed a Minority, female, and/or Disabled/ Service Disabled Veteran owned business enterprise (e.g., copy of certification).
- Information about your company’s capacities, including size and capabilities of facilities, equipment and personnel.
- Research and development capabilities - particularly in areas related to engineering support.
- Listing of your current customers, with information on the business relationships you have with them.
- Information concerning your company’s viability. Since this program offers opportunities to new and developing companies, Kimball Office requests financial information such as what is normally provided from one company to another. (e.g., Dun & Bradstreet report).
- Review of your company information by our Commodity Operations staff, procurement staff or purchasing decision-makers to determine whether your products or services meet our current business needs, quality, cost, delivery and service requirements.
- Confirmation that your company meets the terms and conditions of a contract with Kimball Office.
- Confirmation that your HUBZone, Minority, Female, Disabled/Service Disabled and Business Enterprise meet our program guidelines.
