This bill substantially dismantles Indiana's supplier diversity reporting and oversight framework by removing the Governor's Commission on Supplier Diversity and eliminating associated definitions, reporting requirements, and administrative structures. The changes delete detailed reporting obligations that previously required state agencies to track and disclose purchasing data for supply items and services procured from diversity-certified businesses, including expenditure amounts, purchasing frequencies, and agency-specific breakdowns. The bill removes multiple definitions central to the supplier diversity program, including 'minority business enterprise,' 'Commission,' 'deputy commissioner,' 'qualified minority nonprofit corporation,' and 'individual with a disability,' along with eligibility criteria such as citizenship requirements, federal tax-exempt status, and board composition mandates. The wholesale removal of these provisions effectively eliminates the administrative apparatus and transparency mechanisms that supported Indiana's supplier diversity program.
