Supplier Diversity Certification: Helpful or Moot?
Certifications like MBE, WBE, SBE, and others create clear classifications for companies looking to expand their supplier chain into new markets. The organizations who grant the supplier diversity certification create communities for the diversified suppliers to network, communicate, and work together.
Are supplier diversity certifications actually helpful, or are they just a trend that’s almost over?
Including pre-employment and post-hire background screenings and drug tests in your fleet management process can reduce these risks. But who wants yet another piece of software to log in and out of during the course of all this management? That’s where the convenience of software integration meets the comprehensiveness of utilizing third parties.
Professional third party background screeners like InfoMart easily integrate with many fleet management systems. This integration allows us to conduct and manage the status of your drivers, and deliver updates and results directly to the software you use to manage all of your fleet details.
Plus, professional background screeners must comply with FCRA requirements to safely retain records, so they always have a protected back-up for you should anything happen to your data or your processes come under scrutiny.
Technologically advanced screeners can even track your drivers at intervals and remind you when it’s time to review employees’ motor vehicle records (MVRs). With the click of a button, an entire employee driver pool is submitted and fresh MVRs are conducted, providing you with the MVR re-certification documentation you need to streamline the monitoring of your whole fleet.
