State Farm® has a long-standing history of engaging with a broad range of suppliers to foster innovation and creativity, increase competition to keep costs low for our policyholders, and enhance our community ties and overall business performance. We value suppliers who:
- Deliver the best combination of price and quality
- Show a commitment to continuous improvement and delivering added value
- Bring expertise and innovative capabilities that align with our needs
- Demonstrate responsiveness and adaptability in meeting our requirements and timelines
In support of our inclusive procurement and contracting strategies, we provide opportunities and access for all suppliers, including diverse-owned businesses, to compete in fulfilling our business needs. Diverse-owned businesses are certified to be at least 51% owned, operated, and controlled by minorities, women, veterans, people with disabilities, and/or members of the LGBTQ+ community. State Farm will accept certifications from States, National Organizations or most third parties, such as Chambers of Commerce.
