Supplier Diversity

AIG proactively seeks out small and/or diverse-owned businesses in order to encourage their participation in the bidding and procurement process on a level playing field and with the focus on merit.

Our Supplier Diversity Program


AIG’s Supplier Diversity Program seeks to broaden AIG’s supplier base by providing more businesses, regardless of ownership or size, with the opportunity to participate in the bidding and procurement process on a level playing field, and with the focus on merit. While AIG’s ultimate decision as to which supplier to use for any procurement will be based on the provider’s qualifications, our Program is designed to be inclusive and to ensure that businesses that have historically played a smaller role in our supply chain, including small and/or diverse-owned businesses, have an opportunity to compete for our business.

AIG’s ultimate decision as to which supplier to choose for any given procurement will be based on merit.

U.S. Supplier Diversity Program

Small and/or diverse-owned businesses are U.S.-based, for-profit enterprises that are at least 51% owned, operated, and controlled by one, or more, of the following groups:

  • Disability-Owned Business Enterprise (DOBE)
  • Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender and Queer (LGBTBE)
  • Minority-Owned Business Enterprise (MBE)
  • African American Asian (includes Asian Indian)
  • Hispanic/Latin Native American (includes Native Pacific Islander, Eskimo)
  • Small Business Enterprises (SBE)
  • Women–Owned Business Enterprise (WBE)
  • Service-Disabled Veteran-owned Business Enterprise (SDVBE)
  • Veteran-Owned Business Enterprise (VBE)

AIG requires that all small and/or diverse-owned businesses provide certification of their diverse-ownership status through a third-party agency. We recognize certifications from the following organizations and agencies:

  • Disability:IN
  • Minority Supplier Development Council UK (MSDUK)
  • National Gay and Lesbian Chamber of Commerce (NGLCC)
  • National Minority Supplier Development Council (NMSDC)
  • National Veteran Business Development Council (NVBDC)
  • National Veteran-Owned Business Association (NaVOBA)

Note: includes regional affiliations, state, and local government agencies

AIG encourages its suppliers to consider small and/or diverse-owned businesses for the purchase of goods and services, used directly or indirectly, in support of the supplier’s work for AIG. AIG expects that our suppliers’ ultimate decisions as to which supplier to choose in support of work for AIG will be based on merit.
