When partnering with suppliers, KeyBank relies on our basic principles of inclusion and respect to help us expand our business and improve our performance.
Our Commitment to Supplier Inclusion
KeyBank demonstrates its commitment to supplier inclusion through business strategy and community access.
Supplier Registration
KeyBank welcomes prospective suppliers who are owned, operated, and controlled by U.S. citizens to register in our supplier portal so Key can learn more about your services.
Voluntary Tier II Reporting Program
The KeyBank voluntary second-tier reporting process allows our majority suppliers to share in our business strategy of utilizing certified suppliers that can add significant value to the financial solutions we provide our clients.
Supplier Access and Inclusion is defined as a Small Business (SBA Standards) or a company that is at least 51% owned, operated, and controlled by a U.S. citizen(s) that is minority, woman, veteran, Service-disabled veteran, LGBT, or individual with a disability.
Through the program, we engage in an inclusive selection processes that include, among other things, informing potential suppliers about opportunities to contract with Key, providing broader access to supplier opportunities, and hiring small and local business where it meets the needs of the business. All selection decisions are based on legitimate, nondiscriminatory business justifications such as total cost, quality, and experience.
