Diversity Report Improvements
We added new features to the Diversity Report to make it easier for you to manage and analyze progress in one place.

Easily analyze different reports with the new Compare feature.
- View a side-by-side comparison between two diversity reports.
- Understand how your diverse spend has changed between time periods.
- Capture changes between each report’s qualification rules, certification status, and more.

Supplier Outreach Improvements
The Supplier Outreach function makes it easy to manage communications with your suppliers. With these new and enhanced features, you can stay on top of your supplier requests and get notified of potential risks.
[ENHANCED] Self-Certify Request
Reach out to your suppliers and send Self-Certify requests.
The Self-Certify Request feature allows you to directly reach out to suppliers on their profile. This allows suppliers to self-certify as a diverse company without the hassle or expense of traditional certifications.
Track and take action on your requests.
When you send a Self-Certify request to a supplier, your requests are auto-populated into the Supplier Outreach tab of the Open Requests section. Set the filter to “Self-Certify” to view the status of your request. Click the ellipsis in the Action column to Close Request As Non Responsive, Resend the Invitation, or View Communication History.
[NEW] Contract Renewal Request
Get notified before your contracts expire.
When contracts you have attached to a supplier profile are about to expire, they are auto-populated into the Supplier Outreach tab with a Priority status. Set the Open Requests filter to “Contract Renewal” to view a list of expiring contracts. Click the ellipsis in the Action column to Upload New Contract, Contact Supplier, or Close Request.
The Contract Renewal Requests feature is set, by default, to create notifications 90 days before the contract expires. This setting can be changed by buyer admins to 30 or 60 days in the admin section of the application.
[NEW] Economic Impact Assessment
Unlock maximum value from your supplier diversity reporting.
TealBook’s Economic Impact Assessment offering allows our customers to externally communicate the impact of spend with diverse suppliers, including how diverse spend generates revenue, creates jobs, and impacts the local economy. In addition to qualified EIA results, TealBook can also offer a potential EIA based on potential diverse spend.
Our EIA offering provides direct, indirect, and induced spend impact for the following metrics:
- Output Effect: A measurement of revenue and income generated by the diverse suppliers you do business with.
- Employment Effect: A measurement of the number of jobs you have created by working with diverse businesses.
- Income Effect: A measurement of the total income generated by diverse suppliers within your supply chain.
- Tax Effect: A measurement of the federal, state, and local business and personal taxes that your business has influenced.
Contact your Customer Success Manager for more information.
[NEW] Global Diversity Sources
As part of TealBook’s commitment to providing continuous intelligence to diverse suppliers, we’ve added 70k diverse suppliers to our platform. This expands our diversity suppliers to 770k—a 10% increase. We’ve also added 3 new UK-based global diversity sources including 2 small-business certifications and 1 minority-business certification.
