Supplier Diversity Policy Statement

John Muir Health’s (JMH’s) purchasing practices are designed to provide equal access and opportunity to all suppliers and prohibit discriminatory business relationships. It is the aim of JMH to provide all segments of Contra Costa County and the surrounding areas with a full, fair and meaningful opportunity to participate in its contracts regardless of race, gender or ethnic origin. JMH is committed to creating a group of suppliers in its supply chain that represent the diversity in the communities we serve. JMH encourages and supports the participation of historically underutilized businesses that can successfully compete for prime or sub-contracting opportunities.
