For more than three decades JPMorganChase has been  committed to building a strong and inclusive supplier base.

We seek to provide equitable access to opportunities in the various areas in which we operate, including in our sourcing engagements. Our approach to working with suppliers includes taking a broad lens that includes, without limitation, companies that are owned and operated by women, ethnic minorities, military veterans, service-disabled veterans, people with disabilities and members of the LGBTQ+ community.

Our Global Supplier Diversity program is focused on facilitating the growth and development of businesses in our supply chain network; promoting equity and inclusion across our entire portfolio of supply chain business partners and driving economic growth in the communities in which we do business. The firm spends over $2 billion with diverse businesses annually, and its strategy focuses on more than diverse supplier spend. JPMorganChase is leveraging the strength of its total procurement organization, business and community partners to lower common barriers faced by diverse businesses. 

We have created a Supplier Diversity Network (SDN) through which certified diverse-owned businesses register with the firm. The SDN is the primary resource through which our supplier diversity and procurement teams identify eligible businesses for consideration in contracting opportunities.

Businesses registered in the SDN are required to be diligent in maintaining current and accurate information in the system. This engagement ensures maximum consideration for appropriate opportunities, and enables access to special events and resources for diverse businesses including information sessions, workshops, programs and initiatives, and networking receptions.

“We are now looking forward at the next 60 years of our business. Chase is helping us to think about next-level business opportunities, going beyond our New York footprint to become a global supplier. Working with Chase—we’ve set up a satellite office in Seattle, and we’re expanding into cyber-security.”
