Novation is committed to encouraging and supporting the development of minority, women and veteran (veteran, disabled veteran, service-disabled veteran) business enterprises that meet high quality standards. The members we serve are committed to economic development in their communities and require qualified MWVBEs to be developed and utilized as suppliers to Novation where appropriate.
Potential MWVBE suppliers and distributors will provide appropriate credentials verifying their classification as a minority, woman or veteran-owned business.
Novation's Supplier Diversity Program includes purchasing and medical-surgical distribution agreements.
Access to a wide variety of MWVBE suppliers and distributors available through a database will allow greater supplier choice for the members we serve. This database will enable tracking of contracted activity to aid members' measurements of their respective organizational commitments and help the members meet regulatory reporting requirements.

Corporate Policy
Novation will provide business opportunities for qualified minority, women and veteran-owned businesses. Novation is committed to the inclusion of minority, women and veteran-owned businesses as an integral part of its supply cost efforts. Through the Supplier Diversity Program, Novation recognizes its responsibility to VHA and UHC members, the communities that it serves, and the society in which it conducts its business. The use of minority, women and veteran-owned businesses must be a function of our normal purchasing and supply chain management process and as is customary, no potential supplier will be precluded from consideration based on race, color, religion, sex, age or national origin.
