The sample below is not all-inclusive, but intended to demonstrate how simple the questionnaire can be, and give you a head start with drafting your own form to be sent out to vendors whose qualifications are unknown to you and not readily displayed. We encourage you to include as many of the qualifying business categories listed in the "About this forum" sticky post as your institution would like to support.
This resource does not apply if your institution already has a Supplier Diversity program and questionnaire. If it does, we urge you to share your directory of Diverse Suppliers with the PACCIN community, either in this forum space, or by email to info@paccin.org or chris@paccin.org.
This is a developing movement, and we welcome any suggestions for improving this sample questionnaire. Perhaps with your collaboration we can create a fully developed PACCIN form.
