Simply put, a diverse supplier is any business that is owned and operated by an individual or group that is part of a traditionally underrepresented or underserved population. These businesses are often collectively referred to as minority- and women-owned business enterprises (MWBEs).

Griffin & Strong has a long record of developing and implementing effective supplier diversity initiatives. These initiatives empower all citizens to have an equal opportunity to compete for business opportunities in the public and private sectors. We are committed to providing the full range of services necessary to ensure that a project is delivered on time and within budget.

Our professional resources for leadership and critical decision-making have enabled many clients to move large-scale projects seamlessly through the beginning stages of the master planning process and into the design and construction phases.

Clients achieve their diversity goals with the help of our strategic implementation services. These supporting services include: setting contract by contract goals for MWBE participation; reviewing bonding requirements; and, identifying areas of opportunity in targeted outreach programs for minority- and women-owned firms. 

Our proficiency in contract compliance guarantees your next program fully aligns with all federal, state, and local regulations pertaining to disadvantaged minority, and women-owned businesses.
