Lone Star College has established three main goals in our Supplier Diversity Program:
To increase the number of minority vendors that do business with LSC by creating channels of communication that enable them to register and gain approval in the LSC system.
To increase the direct spend with minority vendors in different commodities that LSC purchases by bringing awareness to the employees with the power of decision making.
To increase the indirect spend with subcontractors by encouraging Prime companies to develop robust subcontracting plans and comply with them.
LSC purchases many kinds of goods and services. These are some of the commodities that we continuously purchase:
Equipment and Supplies
Art
Sporting/Athletic
Chemistry
Cosmetology
Dental
Veterinary
Services
Advertising services
Printing services
Promotional items
Uniforms, caps, robes, gowns
Construction
Building construction (educational, general, offices)
One hour out of every month the Lone Star College Supplier Diversity team will have a free virtual workshop benefitting small business owners. All meetings will be held from 10am – 11am.
