Carolinas HealthCare has long been a leader in championing the overall well-being of the communities it serves. Its commitment spans not only the delivery of healthcare to all those in need, but also includes making employment opportunities available to all segments of society and developing other innovative ways of enhancing the quality of life for those residing in the region.
For example, Carolinas HealthCare has a focused emphasis on diversifying the sources of supplies and services it uses. The Diversity Procurement Development Team was chartered to identify and develop minority- and woman-owned businesses that are capable of providing the goods and services we need to fulfill our mission. This is a real 'win-win' situation for the community and Carolinas HealthCare. For the community, the business base is broadened and diversified. Carolinas HealthCare gains access to more local suppliers.
Our renewed emphasis on using minority- and women-owned suppliers furthers supply chain initiatives while complementing other programs already in place for areas such as employment opportunities, physician recruitment and medical education.
To recommend a minority- or woman-owned business that would be an excellent supplier for Carolinas HealthCare or for more information about the Supplier Diversity Program, call 704-512-7772 or send an e-mail. To apply as a minority supplier, please fill out the Supplier Registration Form.
