Supplier Diversity Program (SDP) Compliance and Reporting

The contract mandates the development and execution of a comprehensive Supplier Diversity Program to align with Massachusetts SDP objectives, focusing on the strategic identification, onboarding, and ongoing spend tracking of Minority Business Enterprises, Women Business Enterprises, and Socially and Economically Disadvantaged suppliers. The contractor will be responsible for implementing systems and processes that ensure measurable progress toward state-mandated diversity goals, maintaining accurate records of supplier engagement and financial outlays to support compliance and reporting requirements. This effort is critical to fostering equitable economic opportunity and increasing the utilization of underrepresented businesses across state-supported initiatives. The contract is classified as a subcontract under NAICS code 541611 and is administered by the Massachusetts Office of the Chief Procurement Officer, with performance expected to be centered in the 02116 zip code area. Submissions must be received by August 5, 2026, and the program’s success will be evaluated based on the effectiveness of supplier integration, transparency in spend data, and adherence to state diversity benchmarks. While no set-aside designation is specified, the work requires deep familiarity with Massachusetts’ supplier diversity framework and the ability to deliver actionable insights for continuous improvement and regulatory compliance.
