The ProQuest Procurement Team is committed to vendor diversity, understanding that strong relationships with those who meet high standards of value, quality, and partnership is key to our success. Partnering with diverse vendors increases our opportunities to hear new ideas, apply different approaches, and find additional solutions that help us respond to customer needs. We strive to build collaborative relationships in an effort to provide the highest quality products and services to our customers and our employees.

Procurement will continue to emphasize vendor diversity, recognizing current ProQuest vendors which are part of this category and proactively seeking new and qualified vendors in future bidding.

Procurement will give every reasonable business opportunity to businesses owned by minorities, women, and persons with disabilities to participate as direct suppliers, contractors, and subcontractors with ProQuest. This commitment aligns with one of the six ProQuest core values: "Ethical interactions with customers, partners, and employees."

If you represent a business owned by minorities, women, or persons with disabilities that provides great products and services at competitive prices, we invite you to provide your contact information to us, via this ProQuest Diverse Vendor Application.

Additionally, the Procurement Team will seek diverse vendors through vendor fairs and trade shows, and continue to offer them equal opportunities in the vendor selection process.
