Supplier Diversity Policy Statement

Watsonville Community Hospital maintains procurement guidelines for the use of diverse suppliers to be used by all employees responsible for purchasing.

Watsonville Community Hospital is not obligated to use a diverse supplier when they are not able to meet the business requirements including pricing.

Supplier Point of Contact

Outreach and Communication

How does your hospital encourage and seek out minority, women, LGBT, and disabled veteran business enterprises to become potential suppliers?

Minority owned suppliers are encouraged to register with HealthTrust Purchasing Group (HPG), our Group Purchasing Organization. HPG provides a listing of "Diversity" supplier contracts (currently 158 agreements) on the member accessible online contracts portal.

How does your hospital encourage its employees involved in procurement to seek out minority, women, LGBT, and disabled veteran business enterprises to become potential suppliers?

1. Employees with contracting or procurement responsibilities are required to: a. Conduct a thorough search using available tools to search for diverse suppliers for every applicable purchasing and contracting opportunity. Suppliers must be certified as a minority owned business. b. Integrate diverse suppliers in all phases of the contracting/purchasing process and enhance diverse supplier where opportunities exist. c. Continue to utilize and develop diverse suppliers who perform well.

How does your hospital conduct outreach and communication to minority, women, LGBT, and disabled veteran business enterprises?

The Watsonville Community Hospital team holds weekly review/update meetings with HPG.
