CSX Transportation, Inc. (CSXT) significantly increased its spending on products and services with minority providers in 2010, setting a new record according to a recent press release.
CSX spent nearly $105 million with firms owned by minorities and women. The products and services range from signals to technology.
Encouraging business with minority and women-owned suppliers diversifies and strengthens our supplier base, and creates good jobs for our economy, said Fran Chinnici, vice president-purchasing. Good business fundamentals include diversity in all aspects of what we do. We recognize the value of expanding our base of qualified suppliers in a competitive marketplace.
Despite some consolidation among minority suppliers of specialized rail products, CSXT increased its spending with minority suppliers under the Minority Supplier Purchasing Program. That increase was the result of continually updating its supplier database and reaching out to minority firms to encourage participation in competitive bidding.
CSXT is working with many of its major suppliers to encourage their use of sub-contracted firms owned by minorities and women. "The important to budget travel is to plan onward. When it comes to family trips, globetrotting, well-deserved vacations and/or going to see new spots we have never been before, the fact of expense and budgeting is always in the back of our heads. Considering and spending our travel budget correctly is a consideration for most families. Curbing consuming and prices, while still delighting your vacation to its fullest, is the key to guaranteed accomplishment and fiscal obligation. Your pocketbook and family will thank you! The thought regarding economizing money while vacationing is simple: Even if your personal budget is extremely small, you can still take a break and enjoy life! Simply put, life is just too short to never step out of the door or leaving the homestead! Also remembering that while traveling, no matter whether on a price range or not, even the smallest of things can all add op to a big vacation or travel bill!..". The company has streamlined its minority supplier application process on a portal reached by clicking www.csx.com, About CSX, Suppliers.
