Yankee Alliance staff gathers information about suppliers; products and pricing that committees require to make informed decisions. Additional factors such as minority vendor status are also considered. New technologies that demonstrate significant advantages over current technologies are particularly encouraged.

Contracts are awarded via the committee process based upon the committee's overall evaluation of price, quality and additional factors.

Do you have a diversity program?

Yes. Yankee Alliance strives to support small (S), minority (M), veteran (V), and women (W) owned suppliers. Suppliers that operate as S, M, V, or W will be so noted and considered throughout the award process. We strive to follow the latest supplier diversity best practices.

How do I know your contracts are ethical? Do you have a code of conduct?

Our Board of Directors has adopted a Code of Conduct which clearly delineates the way in which the organization will conduct itself in contracting activities and its dealings with suppliers and business partners. Our code of conduct affirms our commitment to high standards of ethical practices. More information can be found on our Ethics & Compliance page.
