Tier 2 Program
What is the Tier 2 Program?
Amazon believes that the inclusion of Disadvantaged-Owned Businesses (DOBs) in our supply chain is a powerful catalyst for economic growth. Through our Supplier Dvelopment and Impact (SDI), Amazon measures jobs supported, wages earned, and economic output generated.
While spending directly with certified Tier 1 DOBs is at the foundation of Amazon SDI, we are also focused on expanding this work to deeper in our supply chain. We do this by encouraging our Tier 1 suppliers to consider DOBs in their sourcing activities, creating a ripple effect. We refer to this as our Tier 2 program.
Why does Amazon have a Tier 2 Program?
Amazon is committed to including certified DOBs in our sourcing activities.
We recognize the value of a supply base which reflects our customers, employees and communities.
How does Amazon report Tier 2?
Reporting periods are monthly and quarterly. Amazon encourages suppliers to participate when the reporting period is open.
