The BEC Supplier Development Initiative (SDI) was established to help small and micro diverse businesses in California and across the nation generate revenue and create jobs in local communities. Diverse businesses are the backbone of our economic vitality, and according to the Small Business Administration (SBA), small businesses have generated 60 to 80 percent of net new jobs annually over the last decade.
SDI was created to more adequately assist the diverse businesses that support our country's economy. The goal of SDI is to address all areas needed to place small and micro businesses in the position to become truly competitive and realize sustainable economic growth.
