In-depth Use Case / Real-world Example

A company focused on increasing supplier diversity tracks the number of contracts awarded to suppliers from diverse backgrounds. For example, if 20% of the company's suppliers are small businesses or minority-owned, the Supplier Diversity Index would be 20%. This index helps ensure that procurement supports a wide range of suppliers, promoting inclusivity, fostering innovation, and expanding market reach.
