Our
Mission
Ogilvy
is committed to building a more diverse and inclusive workplace,
and that commitment extends to the suppliers from whom we purchase
goods and services. To increase the opportunities that diversity
suppliers have to work with Ogilvy, we have put in place a Supplier
Diversity Program.
Ogilvy
Procurement Guidelines
The
vendor selection and procurement process for Ogilvy North America
is based on individual department needs. We have key decision
makers in nearly a dozen departments, and each department has
its own specifications and requirements. Prospective vendors must
satisfy our Purchasing Guidelines, which require buying decisions
and vendor selections to be based on "total evaluated costs,"
allowing us to keep costs to a minimum, thereby increasing our
value to our clients.
Eligibility
To
participate in Ogilvy's supplier diversity program, a supplier
must be certified by one of the approved third-party agency listed
below:
In
addition, a company must be fiscally sound with a good financial
track record. We also consider the quality of the products and
services offered, the suppliers' productive capacity, their industry
experience, technical competence and prior performance at Ogilvy.
How to Become an Ogilvy Supplier
Ogilvy
Supplier Diversity maintains an internal directory, which is used
as a reference tool to identify diverse suppliers for potential
procurement opportunities. We require third-party certification
for diverse suppliers to be included in the directory.
Please
ensure that your company is certified as a diverse supplier by
a third-party before soliciting business with Ogilvy Supplier
Diversity.
To
Apply:
-
Complete the Diverse
Supplier Registration Form. Please be as detailed as possible.
If your company specializes in a certain product or service
above your other offerings, please be sure to highlight that
product or service.
-
Submit a copy of your certification(s) electronically in PDF,
TIF or JPEG format. However, please ensure that the graphic
is sized appropriately for printing.
-
Send directly to the decision maker
department head responsible for your area of expertise any supporting
documentation you deem necessary. This would include brochures,
portfolio, presentations, articles, etc.
Ogilvy
will conduct a review process and evaluate your submission based
on our clients' requirements, as well as our core values and vendor
quality standards.
