BD Global Procurement strives to continuously deliver the highest sustained value for our company by leveraging our full competitive supply base using highly effective and efficient systems and processes.
BD products and businesses require diverse materials, supplies and services. To select the right supply strategy and supplier base for each need while accommodating continual global and industry changes, BD Global Procurement must diligently analyze internal and external dynamics—from risk to pricing to innovation.
Our associates lead cross-functional sourcing teams to review businesses' needs, for each category of purchase, against these critical factors:
Implementation of sourcing includes rigorous testing and validation protocols where required by government regulations, and we enable significant annual savings through continuous improvements to maximize the value from the supply base.
BD Global Procurement continuously improves the reliability, quality, and cost effectiveness of our procured products and services. We closely collaborate with strategic and preferred suppliers to develop continuous improvement projects—ranging from simple lean and waste reduction measures, to full Six Sigma programs—to increase value, savings, and competitive advantage.
The BD Expectations for Suppliers document outlines specific standards of social responsibility, environmental stewardship, ethical practices, and governance that suppliers need to meet. This document is our version of a supplier code of conduct, and we expect all suppliers to thoroughly review this document and act within its guidelines.

The BD Supplier Diversity Program covers our U.S. and Puerto Rico operations. In addition to supporting our efforts to source supplies and services from qualified small business suppliers under our Small Business Subcontracting Plan, the program is expanding to include diverse-owned suppliers, regardless of size.
Suppliers that qualify as small and/or diverse are required to provide BD with evidence of certifications through either an approved third-party certifying organization or the BD Business Size & Diversity Self-Certification Form (available through the BD Registration Portal)
The following small business and diversity categories require third-party certification/verification:
• HUBZone small businesses must be certified by the U.S. Small Business Administration. For more information on HUBZone certification, refer to the U.S. Small Business Administration website.
• Veteran-owned and service-disabled veteran-owned businesses should show evidence of verification or progress toward verification by the Office of Small & Disadvantaged Business Utilization. The verification process is initiated through its website.
• All large businesses claiming diversity status must submit third-party certification.
For more information on certifying agencies, contact the BD Supplier Diversity Office.
BD recognizes the following small business classifications, identified by the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) and the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 19—Small Business Programs:
Small businesses interested in a supplier relationship with BD through our Supply Diversity Program must be established as a small business organized for profit, located in, and operating primarily within the United States.
For additional information on whether your company is eligible to qualify as a small business under any of the above classifications, refer to the U.S. Small Business Administration website.
In addition to the designations tracked as small businesses, BD maintains data and tracks spend for the following diverse business designations, both small and large:
All small businesses and diverse-owned suppliers are encouraged to register within the BD Registration Portal. Our procurement professionals regularly access the site to search for qualified diverse suppliers to include in bidding opportunities. In addition, we keep certification information in this database up-to-date to provide BD aggregate reporting as required by the U.S. federal government and to provide information on the BD Supplier Diversity Program to other BD customers.
