Ranked in the Top 10 Supplier Diversity Programs by DiversityInc Magazine

The top companies have been announced and we have done it again! The operator of Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Illinois (BCBSIL) has been ranked third for the Top 10 Supplier Diversity Programs. This marks the third time in four years that we have finished in the Top 10 for Supplier Diversity.

Each year we complete an extensive questionnaire presented by DiversityInc to determine the top companies in several categories including business diversity. Our response is a collaborative effort among Enterprise Diversity & Inclusion Services, Human Resources and Corporate Supplier Diversity. DiversityInc Magazine scored the responses for more than 587 companies.

We ranked third due to the utilization of diverse suppliers, which includes minorities, women, veterans, disabled, and gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender-owned businesses. As a result of the constant effort to present opportunities for qualified diverse suppliers, we ended 2012 with 237 diverse suppliers.
