Policy, Action, Measure: Best Practices from Manitoba Liquor & Lotteries Supplier Diversity and Social Procurement

Many organizations are working to diversify their supply chain and practice social procurement. Measurement is a key part of a strong practice so you can share outcomes, learn from the data, celebrate, and improve.

Join us for an insightful and engaging quarterly CLASP event focused on advancing social procurement and supply chain diversification. In this session, we will spotlight crown corporation Manitoba Liquor & Lotteries’ inspiring Supplier Diversity Program, exploring their comprehensive journey from concept to implementation. 

Jeff Wiebe, Director of Corporate Procurement, will share valuable insights into how Manitoba Liquor & Lotteries established organizational goals, defined key metrics, and developed a tailored supplier diversity survey to gather meaningful data.

Learn how they track, measure, and report on diverse supplier spend, and discover how they’ve set ambitious future targets to contribute to a more equitable local economy and build a resilient, inclusive supply chain. 

This event offers practical strategies, inspiring success stories, and opportunities to enhance your organization’s social procurement practices. Don’t miss this opportunity to gain knowledge and tools to drive meaningful change within your supply chain.

After we hear from speakers, there will be time to discuss the content together, as well as space for networking in virtual tables.
