Gallagher Connect Partners

Helping you meet supplier diversity goals and overall business objectives

Higher targets on supplier diversity spend have left many companies seeking ways to meet their diversity goals, but meeting these goals through traditional suppliers can be challenging — that's where we step in.

Gallagher Connect Partners cultivates relationships with certified diverse partners, combining Gallagher's global resources with our partners' specialized expertise. By working together, we drive the best results for our shared clients — ensuring they receive the local and diverse expertise they need, backed by the strength of Gallagher's Global Brokerage.

Diverse Vendor Access Program

Safeguarding your business and supporting meaningful impact

In today's business environment, it's crucial to collaborate with a wide range of vendors and increase the expenditure on diverse suppliers. However, these suppliers often encounter unique obstacles when it comes to meeting procurement criteria, particularly in obtaining the necessary insurance coverage to protect their businesses and clients.

To address this issue, Gallagher has developed the Diverse Vendor Access Program. This initiative aims to provide your suppliers with the most favorable insurance pricing, terms and conditions, enabling them to fulfill your contractual insurance requirements that often impede their ability to engage in business with you.

Additionally, we have partnered with insurance agencies owned by minorities and women to assist your suppliers in obtaining coverage. This collaboration presents another opportunity for you to surpass your supplier diversity objectives.

DEI Consulting

Improving organizational health to manage risk and drive change

We recognize the transformative power of fostering diversity and inclusion within organizations, and our bespoke DEI Consulting services help you achieve your DEI goals while ensuring a seamless integration with your existing insurance program.

Given the polarization of inclusion and diversity (I&D), many institutions and organizations are having trouble navigating changing legislation and increased scrutiny from consumer groups and activist shareholders, leading to an increase in Directors and Officers and Employment Practices Liability claims.

Failing to understand the overall impact on employee wellbeing can affect our clients' bottom line and cause real-life, risk management issues for numerous organizations. As a leader in I&D, Gallagher is uniquely positioned to assist clients with lowering their cost of risk and advancing I&D efforts.

Our services include:
