Outreach and Advocacy

Purdue Supplier Diversity and Procurement Services participate in local, regional and state matchmaking events and trade fairs. Prospective suppliers are given the opportunity to share their products or services through direct contact with Purdue purchasing representatives.

Supplier Diversity or Procurement staff are available to speak at community outreach and contracting events.  

Our Supplier Diversity team can facilitate connections for diverse suppliers with Purdue’s procurement organization and campus departments.

Suppliers who want an overview of Purdue’s procurement process can email the Supplier Diversity Office at supplierdiversity@purdue.edu or review the Doing Business With Purdue (.PPT) presentation.
