Diversity

Diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) has become an influential topic in recent years. At the very least, consumers now expect brands to take a stand on social issues. Increasingly, they’re putting their dollars towards brands that commit to DEI throughout their entire business, including the supply chain.

Combined with our intuitive technology platform and suite of off-the-shelf assessments, SupplyShift provides businesses with a holistic solution to their supply chain diversity challenges.
