The program promotes business relationships and contract opportunities for small, local and diverse businesses wishing to provide goods and services to SDSU Research Foundation departments and projects.

The purchasing staff will:

• Educate small and minority business suppliers on how to foster relationships and provide goods and services to SDSU Research Foundation departments and projects
• Provide small and minority business resources to departments; works with them to consider and purchase from small/minority businesses to support their operational and research needs
• Assist campus project teams, which have been awarded federally funded research contracts and grants, to develop small business plans which enable them to achieve specific federal small business utilization goals as directed under FAR Part 19 and 40 CFR
• Collaborate with other CSU campuses and small business development programs to promote small and minority business interests at SDSU Research Foundation.
