“ Lehman Brothers believes that attracting and retaining the best suppliers from the widest pool of talent is a key driver for future business success”
“ We need to make sure we understand our own supply base, then give diverse businesses the opportunity to pitch for contracts at the tender stage- with a view to awarding contracts.
