Supplier Diversity and MWBE Initiatives
Many small, minority, women, and disadvantaged business (SMWDBE) and supplier diversity programs often rely primarily on goals, whether they are race/gender-neutral or race/gender-conscious. However, Hathor takes a different approach. We believe in leveraging our deep understanding of inclusive procurement techniques and industry knowledge, especially in the construction sector, to develop our public and private sector diverse businesses initiatives.

Inclusive Community and Economic Development Strategies
Today, the alignment between service and profit has become a catalyst for innovation. It has been proven that diversity and inclusion provide numerous advantages to businesses, governments and communities. By leveraging community resources and participating in redevelopment initiatives, we can honor the unique cultural aspects of a community while simultaneously developing strategies for full integration of a community's diverse members. This approach not only makes financial sense but also fosters an environment where community diversity and business opportunities thrive. At Hathor, we have taken it a step further by designing socioeconomic master plans that promote inclusion throughout entire jurisdictions, rather than focusing solely on individual communities or institutions.
