Commitment to Supplier Diversity

Sterling is committed to creating a more diverse, inclusive, innovative culture – one that starts with our workforce and extends throughout every aspect of our business. Our supplier diversity program plays an important role in our strategy by connecting us to small and diverse businesses. We continue to build a supply base that reflects our company values and appreciate how local diverse suppliers help contribute to the economic growth and well-being of the communities where we live and work.

Through our supplier diversity program, we aim to build strong, collaborative relationships with forward-thinking suppliers who share our vision and approach to business. Sterling recognizes the effort required to identify opportunities, execute beyond expectations, and expand. By working with diverse companies and sharing the opportunity to grow, we pave the way for sustainable business relationships. Growth stimulates local economies, strengthens partnerships within the communities, and allows us to better serve our customers. Working together we can leverage and improve our capabilities, build stronger businesses, and create long-term partnerships between our companies.
