PLANNING PHASE
2022 Program of Work
Significant discussion items included:
• Decline in attendance for 4Q2021 ISCWG Webinars
• Review of the Council’s three (3) business units published 2022 Events Calendar
• Concerns about attendance metrics for additional programming
• Lack of Chain Professionals (i.e. Buyers) representation on the ISCWG
• Council’s ‘Ask” of Buying Entity board level members to engage with Buyers
• Relevance of/appeal of Survey topics to Buyers

• Buyers interest in attending Quarterly Supply Chain Professionals Luncheons
(QSCPL) to connect with MBEs

• A big concern is live events, and the possibility of having to return to a virtual
concept, which impacts networking opportunities.

• The identification of speakers for each quarterly luncheon is important

NMSDC Indemnification issue with Affiliate Councils still outstanding. Bonnie/chairs' letter is attached.

CERTIFY. CONNECT.DEVELOP. ADVOCATE.

December 15, 2021

Ying McGuire
CEO and President
National Minority Supplier Development Council, Inc.
1359 Broadway, 10th Floor, Suite 1000
New York, NY 10018

Dear Ms. McGuire:

The Board Chairs and Presidents of the 23 regional affiliates of the National Minority Supplier
Development Council (NMSDC) are submitting this correspondence jointly to share our concern
related to legal exposure on certification decisions executed on behalf of NMSDC.

Our boards are unanimously supporting the resolution that the Greater New England MSDC board
approved and submitted to you, seeking to have NMSDC indemnify and hold harmless all the regional
councils in connection with disputes that arise from certification or recertification decisions. For your
convenience, a copy of this resolution is enclosed.

One of the essential pillars of the work of our network is the certification of businesses as Minority Business
Enterprises (MBEs) that are minority-owned and controlled. As you know, the criteria for the certification
and recertification of MBEs are governed by the NMSDC, including issues relating to ethnic groups,
ownership; governance and control; and day-to-day management. Similarly, NMSDC outlines the
process for certification, including application; desk audit; site visit; Certification Compliance
Committee review; and board approval.

Under the current structure for certification and recertification, the regional councils have been tasked
with collecting and reviewing applications, including the required documentation; conducting site
visits; applying the criteria to the facts, and assessing whether a business is qualified to be certified or
recertified; and collecting fees for certification or recertification. Regional councils routinely consult
with NMSDC’s Network Delivery Services on the certification and recertification process, and a wide
variety of certification/recertification issues are referred in writing to NMSDC’s Field Operations
Committee, including the existence of “extenuating circumstances.”

Decisions by regional councils to approve or deny applications to certify or recertify a business as an
MBE have inevitably led to disputes over the years. In some cases, the applicant disputes a decision
to deny certification or recertification. Often, competitors argue a decision to approve certification
or recertification. Irrespective of the cause, these disputes may lead to litigation, which can be
expensive and significantly distract the regional councils, its staff, and the board of directors.

We believe that the potential for litigation would be reduced if potential plaintiffs know they are facing
a united front comprised of NMSDC and the regional councils. In addition, if the certification or
recertification decision ultimately results in litigation, the negative impact, both financial and otherwise,
would be reduced if NMSDC and the regional council were united in defending the most important

National Minority Supplier Development Council Regional Affiliates

aspects of MBE certification, including: the NMSDC process; the NMSDC criteria; and the application
by the councils of the requirements to the specific facts of the certification or recertification.

Therefore, all 23 boards of the regional affiliates of NMSDC believe that if we have made reasonable
efforts to follow NMSDC’s criteria and process, and appropriate steps to apply that process and
standards to the facts before it, then it is reasonable to expect that NMSDC will indemnify and hold
harmless the regional councils from claims that arise in connection of certification or recertification
decisions.

Would you please advise of some time to discuss these issues in greater detail and agree on a path
forward?

Sincerely,
