| Lockheed Martin is Committed to Supplier Diversity At Lockheed Martin, we know that working with a wide-range of professional, diverse suppliers gives us a competitive edge in delivering high quality, innovative products and services. Diversity brings agility and new perspectives to products and services. What’s more, our differences make us stronger. Our mission is to have a world-class supplier diversity program that makes every effort to offer subcontractor opportunities to all types of small businesses. In addition to diverse suppliers, Lockheed Martin also strives to promote subcontract opportunities to Historically Black Colleges and Minority Institutions (HBCU/MI). |  |
 | “A chief objective of the corporation is to maintain a world class supply base; one that enables mission success and enhances shareholder value. To accomplish that objective, we must ensure that the corporation’s sourcing process is unencumbered and avails us to innovative ideas and technology regardless of the source. Using diverse suppliers makes good business sense and at Lockheed Martin small business contributes to mission success.” Nancy Deskins Director, Supplier Diversity, Lockheed Martin Corporation |
Lockheed Martin Policy It is Lockheed Martin policy that its Business Units will conduct socioeconomic subcontracting programs in recognition of compelling moral, social and economic necessity. It is also policy to facilitate the achievement of its negotiated subcontracting goals by developing the capabilities of, and pursuing opportunities to award subcontracts and other procurements to, small, small disadvantaged, women, veteran, and historically black and tribally owned colleges and universities, and other minority institutions. In furtherance of these objectives, Lockheed Martin will institute a proactive supplier diversity program designed to develop the growth and competitive capabilities that will enable such businesses to become responsible suppliers. This program will be consistent with policy of considering all subcontractors and suppliers fairly in competition for requirements falling within their demonstrated capabilities. This policy applies to government contracts and, to the extent practicable, commercial programs. | How to do Business with Lockheed Martin 1.)
