The Supplier Diversity Program provides technical assistance to local emerging small businesses and minority-owned, women-owned and disabled veteran-owned business enterprises (MWDVBEs) to give those organizations greater access to contracting and procurement opportunities with the city. This is accomplished by:
An ESB is defined as an organization that is certified by the Governor’s Office of Economic Development and currently active. Active status can be found on the diversifynevada.com website.
An MWDVBE is defined as an organization that is at least 51 percent owned by one or more minorities/women/disabled veterans who also control (exercise power to make policy decisions) and operate (actively involved in day-to-day management) the business.
The city of Las Vegas’ Supplier Diversity Program allows for self-certification during the registration process and does not require formal certification.
