WorkplaceSupplier Diversity Alliance Canada (SDAC) was established in 2016 for the intention of advancing supplier diversity in Canada. SDAC seeks to provide support, guidance and consultation to stakeholders on the direct impacts of developing and applying effective inclusive procurement policies and practices.
Collaborating and aligning efforts in key areas, SDAC strives to improve economic opportunities for diverse certified suppliers from across the country. SDAC focuses on three core activities: Advocacy, Research, and Learning.
The three member organizations of the SDAC include: Canadian Aboriginal and Minority Supplier Council (CAMSC – representing Aboriginal and visible minority-owned businesses), Canadian 2SLGBTQI+ Chamber of Commerce (CGLCC – representing 2SLGBTQI+-owned businesses), and Inclusive Workplace Supply Council of Canada (IWSCC - representing Veterans and/or people with disabilities who own businesses).
The three member organizations are all incorporated not-for profit Canadian organizations with a national scope. It is anticipated that other categories of diverse suppliers may be represented in the future.
SDAC encourages participation from organizations focused on driving economic opportunities for diverse-owned businesses through supplier diversity activities.
